What is being bought

Published requirement description

Kirklees Council sought tenders from suitably qualified and experienced organisations to

deliver air quality improvements via technological solutions at the signalised junctions within

its Air Quality Management Areas (AQMAs).

We envisage that there are two key areas of work to achieve a successful outcome in this

project:

  1. Upgrading Traffic Management Systems (TMS) to deliver targeted improvements to air

quality at specific locations, and

  1. Deliver a solution for connected driving, which can prioritise specific road users and

inform driver behaviour.

To deliver this project, it is essential that the solution conforms to the core system

requirements

of the existing Kirklees Urban Traffic Control (UTC) and Urban Traffic Management and Control

(UTMC) assets.

The aims of this project are to: -

  • Provide new UTMC solutions to further improve traffic flow and reduce stop start traffic,

thereby reducing emissions;

  • Monitor and, if possible, predict emissions that will inform the decisions for adjusting

signals, based on localised conditions;

  • Give selective vehicle priority to certain vehicle types, especially the worst polluting;
  • Provide communications between systems to allow drivers to be able to navigate traffic

signals and to provide them with selective priority;

  • Provide speed advice to connected vehicles; and
  • Encourage behavioural changes to drivers.

    2015/102) (the 'Regulations'),which require or permit the contracting authority not to select

Review procedure

The contracting authority will incorporate a minimum ten (10) calendar day standstill period

at the point that information on the conclusion of the Contract is communicated to

tenderers. This period allows any unsuccessful tenderer(s) to seek further debriefing from

the contracting authority before the conclusion of the Contract. Such additional information should be requested from the address at I.1 of this notice. If an appeal regarding the

conclusion of the Contract has not been successfully resolved, then the Public Contracts

Regulations 2015 (SI 2015/102) provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are

at risk of harm by a breach of the rules to take action in the High Court (England, Wales and

Northern Ireland).Any such action must be started within thirty (30) days beginning with the

date when the aggrieved party first knew or sought to have grounds for starting the

proceedings had risen. The Court may extend the time limited for starting proceedings where

the Court considers that there is a good reason for doing so, but not so as to permit

proceedings to be started more than three (3) months after that date. Where the Contract

has not been concluded, the Court may order the setting aside of the award decision or order

the contracting authority to amend any document and may award damages. If however the

Contract has been concluded, the Court may only award damages or, where the contract

award procedures have not been followed correctly, declare the Contract to be ineffective.

Publisher note: The Contracting Authority considers that this Contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises ('SMEs'). However, any selection of economic operators will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement, and the Contract will be awarded to the most economically advantageous tender on the basis of the award criteria within the procurement documents.
