Description
This contract to Marston Holdings Limited is to provide civil parking enforcement services, and a data analyst, as permitted under the ESPO 509_23 framework. The initial intention is for a 3-month pilot scheme. The recommendation to approve a 12-month contract while initially proceeding with a 3-month pilot is driven by the need for flexibility and effective risk management.
