Cumberland Council is looking to establish a Dynamic Purchasing System ("DPS") for the provision of Passenger Transport Services which includes, but not limited to, Home to School, Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), Pupil Referral Units, and Health, Care and Communities Transport. The council intends to set up the DPS from 9th April 2025 to 28th October 2028 and admittance of new providers will be all year round. There are no further extensions. It will be a two-stage process: during the first stage interested Tenderers must meet the council's selection criteria in order to be admitted onto the system. Contracts are awarded during the second stage of the process. In stage two the council will invite Tenderers successfully admitted on the DPS to bid for contracts (routes). Providers can join the DPS at any point in time. Contracts will be of varying lengths. The total value for the duration of the DPS, from start date to end date, will not exceed £75M, excluding VAT.

The West Yorkshire Combined Authority (the CA) is seeking a single supplier or consortium of suppliers to provide a new public transport data management system to replace its current existing single system. The core purpose of the Public Transport Data Management System for the CA is to act as a single data hub for public transport information. In this function, it is not an isolated service but rather exists as part of a wider ecosystem in a range of interconnected services that support each other. In their entirety, they support the business processes that deliver the organisation's objectives and must work together to achieve such delivery. From its initial conception and specification of requirements, the data flows and processes in the wider ecosystem have shaped and influenced the design and development of the current system throughout its life. Sought contract term: Initial term of 5 Years plus optional extension of 6 x 1 Years
