Opportunity overview

Northern Trains Limited intends to enter into a contract with the National Parking Platform (NPP) for the provision of digital parking payment services across the NTL car park estate. The service replaces the existing arrangement and will enable customers to pay for parking via any participating platform, using a single NPP issued location code. The National Parking Platform operates as a central data and payment integration hub, aggregating transaction data from all participating parking payment providers and supplying consolidated reporting to parking operators for financial and enforcement purposes. This approach increases customer choice, supports industry innovation, and reduces commission costs compared with existing market solutions.

Renewal

Description
The contract includes an initial term of two (2) years, followed by rolling one year extension periods.

Options

Description
Northern Trains Limited has the option to renew the contract on a rolling annual basis after the initial two year term. These options may be exercised repeatedly, enabling the Northern Trains Limited to extend the contract beyond the anticipated seven year period if operationally necessary.
