The award stage was reached on 26 November 2025, with the contract scheduled to commence on 1 December 2025 and conclude on 30 August 2026.

Engaging small to medium enterprises (SMEs) might not align with this tender due to its specific suitability requirements, but larger enterprises can leverage this model to expand their service offerings in public sector transport contracts.
