## Summary

The procurement process for the award of contract PKC13341 EV Rapid Charger Contactless Upgrade took place under the administration of Perth & Kinross Council, located in Perth at 2 High Street. This tender, categorised within the transport equipment and auxiliary products sector, involved the direct procurement method, awarding a contract without competitive bidding for upgrading electric vehicle rapid chargers to include contactless payment capabilities in compliance with recent regulations. The contract, valued at £141,518.71, was signed on 3rd July 2025 and falls into the 'works' category, with the award tagged on 6th May 2025. This project spans from 3rd October 2025, marking the start of the tender period, and was ultimately awarded to SWARCO Smart Charging Limited based in Hemel Hempstead.

Investment in specialised development or enhancing technological capabilities in this niche may align businesses to become preferred partners for similar projects in the future. Potential competitors should highlight their capacity to implement innovative solutions that comply with evolving transport equipment regulations.
