Crown Commercial Service as the authority was seeking to put in place a new pan-government collaborative agreement for the provision of income generation from commercial advertising, experiential advertising and end to end car parking management.
This agreement has been used by Central Government Departments, their agencies, (including publicly owned transport organisations), Non Departmental Public Bodies, and all other UK Public Sector bodies, including local authorities, health, education providers, devolved administrations and charities.

- media owners to manage, promote and maximise value across their advertising space for a specified number of years.
- experiential sampling and events specialists
-car parking service providers to manage parking spaces, car parking assets and payments for a specified number of years.
This commercial agreement has become the preferred route for public sector and government bodies to generate income from commercial advertising, experiential advertising and end to end car parking management.
The framework has been split into five lots as below:
Lot 1 - Internal commercial advertising - static, digital, large and small format
Lot 2 - External commercial advertising - static, digital, large and small format
