Decision details

To award the contract for the provision of CCTV enforcement cameras, at the value of £2.5m, using Lot 2 of the CCS TTAS framework to Marston Holdings Ltd., to enable the council to continue to be agile in its enforcement of moving traffic offences.

The Council is currently in the process of raising a framework contract for CCTV enforcement, but this will not be ready for use until at least the last quarter of 2024. Due to the need to transform parking services and further develop CCTV enforcement, it is essential that the existing camera network can be maintained and expanded as necessary before the framework contract can be utilised for procurement. There is also a need to replace all remaining Pan-Zoom-Tilit (manual) cameras with automatic cameras as the Parking department will no longer be continuing this function. As such a one-year contract for CCTV enforcement cameras needs to be procured to allow the council to fulfil its obligations and support the strategic direction of Parking services.

A compliant mini-competition was undertaken using Lot 2: Transport and Pedestrian Control, of the Crown Commercial Service (CCS) Transport, Technology, and Associated Services (TTAS) framework. Marston Holdings, was the sole supplier to respond to the mini-competition. Their responses were evaluated and identified as being of a suitable quality to provide the service.
