Moving Traffic Enforcement (MTE) Cameras
Authority: The North Yorkshire Council (Local council)
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionNorth Yorkshire Council is seeking a supplier to provide a Moving Traffic Enforcement (MTE) Camera solution to support the civil enforcement of moving traffic contraventions. The requirement includes the supply, installation, hosting, maintenance and support of approved camera technology, associated software and communications infrastructure. The contract will initially support a pilot deployment of MTE cameras, with the potential for future expansion to additional locations across North Yorkshire. The solution must be secure, compliant with relevant legislation and government approvals, and capable of supporting the Council's wider traffic management and road safety objectives. The successful supplier will be responsible for delivering a fully operational service, including ongoing maintenance, support, reporting and associated services required to enable effective enforcement operations. The Council is seeking a scalable and future-proof solution that can support both the initial pilot and any subsequent rollout requirements.
- The authority expects to re-tender this requirement around 24 Jul 2031, 23:59 BST.

No conditions of participation were published on the notice; check the tender documents.
- Price carries 65 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 6.5 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
- Turnover usually expected at this size: about £2,000,000 (twice the annual value).
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula. Turnover is an indicative market norm (≈2× annual value), not a published condition.

How the contest usually goes
Winner shares use published awards; bid and price charts use contested lots.
i
How often small and medium firms win.
Share of awards where the winner’s size is known.
The counts under this question show how many awards have a known supplier size.
Small firms have won here. Neither number says whether you qualify; it describes who has been winning.
i
How often local firms win similar work.
Winners with a registered address in the delivery region, out of awards with a known address.
Local means the winner is registered in the region where that award was delivered. The market figure counts awards delivered in Yorkshire and the Humber.
A local branch does not count if the registered address is elsewhere.
Most of this buyer’s recorded winners were registered outside the region where that award was delivered.
i
How long buyers here take to decide after bids close.
Middle value in days from the bid deadline to the award date, on competitions that published both.
Only decided tenders count, so slow ones still waiting are not in.
Half of these awards have an award date within 52 days of the bid deadline.
i
How often work is awarded with no recorded rival.
Direct awards and tenders where every published lot count shows one bid.
Both shares are minimums: some awards have no bid count.
Thin markets produce this too; it is not proof of a tailored specification.
Direct awards or one recorded bid are common here. Check the route before spending time on a bid.
How many bids did past lots attract?
i
How many bids past lots received.
Each colour is a bid-count range. Only competed lots with a published count are included.

About this data
- Source. Official UK public procurement notices (Find a Tender), reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0. New notices arrive through the day; the figures are rebuilt nightly.
- Two views, kept apart. The authority’s own track record and the wider market for the same kind of work sit side by side and are never mixed. Where the local picture is too thin, a figure widens to a broader market and says which one it used.
- Forecasts are labelled. The price forecast and its range, possible competitors and the earlier-work matches are our estimates from past awards: not published facts, not win chances and not price advice. Official notices do not say who is bidding.
- Every figure shows what it rests on. Not every notice publishes a bid count, a value or a delivery region, so each figure carries the number of records behind it, and one built on few records is marked as such. The on a figure explains it; the counting rules are in the methodology. Spotted something wrong? Tell us.

Modifications may be required during the Contract term where necessary to maintain the lawful, secure and effective operation of the Moving Traffic Enforcement service. This may include changes resulting from amendments to legislation, statutory guidance, DfT or VCA requirements, information security standards, telecommunications infrastructure, hosting arrangements, back-office systems, integration requirements, hardware or software obsolescence, manufacturer end-of-life notices, or operational requirements arising from future deployment locations. The Authority may also require additional cameras, associated services and infrastructure following successful completion of the pilot phase and subject to available budget and approvals.
