Summary of the contracting process

The Milton Keynes Local Bus Contracts, comprising three lots (Contract 1434, 1435, and 1436), are being procured by Milton Keynes Council, focusing on public road transport services in the South East region of England. The procurement, classified under "services", is currently in the award stage after completion of the tender process. The contract period is set from 27 October 2019 to 24 October 2020, with bids having been accepted until 16 September 2019. The Council invites tenders from experienced transport operators, allowing bidders to propose offers for individual lots or combine multiple lots in their submissions.

Businesses that demonstrate experience in public transport operations and have the capacity to manage the service requirements efficiently will be well-positioned to compete for these contracts. With the contract maintaining a one-year duration, successful bidders may also establish long-term relationships with the Milton Keynes Council.
