Description

The Council are looking for Service Providers to provide a Cashless Parking Payment Service and a Service Provider to provide and manage a cashless ePermit solution.

Cashless parking is a familiar option to a proportion of motorists. It is considered that with the increased use of 'Apps' the number of people using these payment services will continue to grow.

The Council has seen an increase in the use of the Cashless Parking Service since it was introduced in the Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole area from 2006 onwards. The Council recognises the benefits of the use of the Cashless Parking Service and wishes to look to the advancement in technology to further improve the service to customers.

The Council are looking for Service Providers to provide the following:

• Lot 1 - A multi-vendor cashless parking payment service, where the Council may award to multiple providers which may include the provision of an alternative cash solution.

• Lot 2 - A provider to supply and manage a cashless ePermit solution

The Council intends to appoint up to five providers to the multi-vendor contract (Lot 1). Suppliers will be required to ensure that they have the capability and capacity to manage expected transaction volumes to deliver a customer focussed and reliable service.

The Council will award Lot 2 as a separate evaluation to a single provider who was already successful in being awarded onto Lot 1. Suppliers applying for Lot 2 will be required to have a flexible and adaptable ePermit solution that can meet the future aspirations for the service within the BCP Council area.

BCP Council is currently in the process of establishing a central office hub and satellite sites from which staff will be able to work and following of the formation of BCP Council and Covid-19 is currently reviewing working practices and the associated management of staff parking. Where this document refers to staff parking it is the intention that when BCP Council wishes to introduce this service it will carry out a further assessment of the Lot 2 bidders to award this element of the contract to a service provider.

A notice was sent to the European Journal regarding this opportunity on 20/10/2020.
