What is being bought
This contract is to enable the installation and support for a new NI motorway control instation system to replace the current end-of-life platform. The contract will incorporate the licensing of National Highways' CHARM solution and a contract for implementation, configuration, and ongoing support. This approach ensures business continuity ahead of the expiry of the existing contract and enables the continued operation of safety critical motorway functions such as VMS, lane control, and MIDAS. The contract facilitates the transition to IP based communications and supports the deployment of future technologies, including C-ITS and connected and autonomous vehicles.

Procedure rationaleSection 41 and paragraph 6 of Schedule 5 of the Procurement Act 2023 provides justification of a Direct Award when the following conditions are met in relation to public contract: (a) due to an absence of competition for technical reasons, only a particular supplier can supply the goods, services or works required, and (b) there are no reasonable alternatives to those goods, services or works. Kapsch TrafficCom is the only supplier who can provide a motorway control instation service compatable with the National Highways Common Highways Agency Rijkswaterstaat Model (CHARM).
