Parking Management Solutions
Introduction
The Parking Management Solutions framework, managed by ESPO, is a structured procurement route within the Facilities & Estates category, aimed at providing public sector organisations with effective solutions for managing parking facilities. This framework, which is not a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS), is available until 8th May 2025. It serves the purpose of streamlining the procurement process, ensuring that public sector entities can access a range of parking management services and products efficiently.
Context & Use Case
Parking management is a critical aspect for many public sector entities, including local councils, hospitals, educational institutions, and government buildings. Effective parking solutions can enhance operational efficiency, improve user experience, and ensure compliance with regulations. This framework has been established to meet these needs by providing access to a variety of parking management services and technologies. Contracting authorities utilise this framework to procure reliable and innovative solutions that address parking enforcement, payment systems, and operational improvements.
Scope of Services
The Parking Management Solutions framework covers a broad spectrum of services and products. Typical offerings under this framework include: 1. Parking enforcement services that ensure compliance with parking regulations and enhance security. 2. Payment systems that facilitate easy and convenient payment options for users, including mobile and contactless payments. 3. Technology solutions designed to improve parking operations, such as automated entry and exit systems, license plate recognition, and real-time occupancy monitoring. 4. Consultancy services for designing and implementing efficient parking management strategies. 5. Maintenance and support services to ensure the continual operation of parking facilities. These services provide public sector organisations with the tools to manage parking facilities effectively, ensuring user satisfaction and operational efficiency.
Who Can Apply
The framework is open to a range of suppliers specialising in parking management and related services. Suitable suppliers include those offering innovative technology solutions, experienced parking enforcement providers, and companies that deliver comprehensive payment systems. Since this is not a DPS, the framework does not allow for open application throughout its duration. Suppliers interested in participating should ensure they meet the specified requirements and pre-qualification criteria set by ESPO.
