About
Derby City Council awarded a contract to Flowbird Smart City UK Limited for the ongoing maintenance of its existing solar-powered Pay and Display machines, which have no mains electrical connection and are predominantly located on streets and surface car parks within the City of Derby.
The contract, valued at £311,029.55, was awarded via a negotiated procedure without prior publication under Regulation 32(2)(b)(ii) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, justified on the grounds that competition is absent for technical reasons, as a change of supplier cannot be made due to requirements of interchangeability or interoperability with existing equipment, services, or installations.
