New traffic management technology procurement framework launched

The Traffic Management Technology (TMT2) framework agreement has been launched by the Crown Commercial Service to provide public sector customers with access to innovative traffic management solutions.

TMT2 replaces the Traffic Management Technology framework, which expired on 10 July 2016 and allows direct and standardised procurement of small components through to large complex solutions.

The framework has been developed in consultation with major public sector stakeholders such as Transport for London and Highways England, along with representatives from local authorities and traffic management industry trade bodies.

The framework is designed to deliver local, regional and national traffic management technologies through a qualified supply chain ensuring reliability and resilience. TMT2 also aims to reduce the cost of traditional procurement across government.

Siemens ITS is among the companies to join the framework. “The announcement follows a comprehensive and competitive tendering process,” said Matthew Vincent, Siemens ITS’s sales and marketing director. ”Being part of TMT2 provides our customers with an additional and straight-forward procurement route to our intelligent traffic systems portfolio, including traffic control, management, enforcement and electric vehicle charging equipment.”
