Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves Cumbria County Council seeking to appoint a freelance co-ordinator for the Morecambe Bay Electric Bike Network. The tender, categorised under sporting services, is active and will close for submissions on 12 June 2017, with expressions of interest required by 5 June 2017. The project is anticipated to create a long-distance electric bike route in the North West of England, building on the existing Bay Cycle Way, which was launched in June 2015.

This tender presents a notable opportunity for local businesses, particularly those in the hospitality and recreational sectors such as cafés, cycle hire services, accommodation providers, and tourist attractions. With the focus on enhancing access to the Morecambe Bay region, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract, as they can leverage local knowledge and connections to drive the initiative's success.
