The contract is one of the many BPA initiatives aimed at raising standards in the parking industry. In particular the model contract is part of a series of initiatives designed to improve the standard of delivery of Civil Parking Enforcement across the country.
The BPA's Model Contract has been designed for organisations who appoint service providers to manage their parking and associated services.
The Contract helps by making public procurement more straightforward and better value for money,
The benefits of using the Contract include: -
- Helping improve the level of service by providing a standard template for the procurement of services
- Encouraging best practice by ensuring that performance is measured on the quality of service provided
- Easing negotiations for both supplier and service provider
- Easing the workload of organisations and time spent designing and preparing contracts
The BPA, government, local contractors and service providers have worked together to produce the Model Contract and the final version has been endorsed by the Transport Select Committee and is also included in the Statutory Guidance.
The Contract pack will include:
- The Model Contract
- A user guide
- A series of schedules
- A template invitation to tender
The Contract will be provided both as a paper copy and in PDF format on disc which will also include the other material.
The cost to become a licensed user is £500 + VAT for BPA members (£950 + VAT for non members) for each year the Contract is in use. Income generated will be reinvested in updating and refining the Contract as and when needed.
