What is being bought

Leicester City Council is planning a future procurement exercise for the provision of Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) camera infrastructure to support parking, bus lane and moving traffic enforcement activities. The anticipated requirement includes: • Supply of ANPR cameras. • Replacement of existing ANPR assets upon reaching end of life. • Installation, integration and commissioning services. • Ongoing maintenance and technical support. • Associated software, hosting and licensing arrangements where required. • Potential future expansion of the ANPR network during the contract term. The proposed contract aims to: • Maintain continuity of critical enforcement infrastructure. • Align procurement arrangements with the expected operational life of ANPR equipment. • Deliver value for money through long-term asset planning. Suppliers shall note that this is a UK1 Pipeline Notice and is not a call for competition. It is intended to provide the forecast of the impending procurement opportunity in line with Section 93 of the Procurement Act 2023, but may be amended after publication. There is no guarantee that a tender opportunity will result from this notice and neither does it commit the Council to procuring any contract. However, should a tender opportunity materialise, further detailed notice(s) would be published in line with the Council’s obligations. At this stage, no input is required from potential Suppliers, and no further details are available on this opportunity. Furthermore, in preparation for any imminent opportunities, Suppliers are encouraged to register on the Central Digital Platform (Find a Tender Service: https://signin.account.gov.uk/sign-in-or-create). To assist prospective Suppliers, Cabinet Office have published video guides with accompanying PDF user manuals which will help Suppliers understand and navigate the platform, including how to register, upload organisational information and search and bid for opportunities.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 48. The category anchor is Software package and information systems (48000000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
