The brief

The contract is not awarded.

Currently the university enforces parking by issuing a Parking Charge Notice for parking in breach of University Parking Regulations.

This is dependent on the agreement made between the University and the member of staff or student to abide by all university regulations, which include the Regulations for the Parking of a Motor vehicle or Bicycle.

We cannot enforce against any non-university id holder.

Parking space is at a premium on all university sites and the problem of persistent parking offenders at halls sites and on academic sites can only be resolved if the member of the Transport Team is able to identify the member of staff or student.

If they subsequently deny ownership or being the driver, we have no way of legally proving otherwise.

The University is not able to request owner information from DVLA because it is not part of an Accredited Trade Association such as BPA (British Parking Association) or IPC (International Parking Community).

The Transport Team currently receives parking permit applications from staff and students and these are approved if they fit the criteria.

Staff are only eligible for a parking permit to park on university sites if they live 3+ miles from their worksite and students must show evidence of medical needs to have a permit application approved.

The university has a Pay & Display Car Park available to all non-permit holders which charges from 8am to 5pm Monday to Friday and a Visitor Car Park which can be booked for external visitors to the university.

The Aims and objectives of providing the service include but are not limited to: - To implement a parking permit management system for university staff, students, contractors and visitors. - To enforce parking offenders in line with BPA/IPC regulations - To provide adequate signage across all parking sites to advise of parking restrictions - To provide the University with a value for money solution and PCN revenue share model where the supplier uses their revenue share to cover their costs. - To provide a facility to monitor entry and exit activity for all vehicles on university sites. - To provide a solution or to be able to integrate with a current solution for the processing of daily and monthly parking payments for staff, students, visitors and contractors.
