Contract Summary

Expressions of Interest for Bus Shelter Operating Contract - Swale Borough Council Area This opportunity closes at 12:00 noon on Tuesday 1st July. This Notice provides information of a future opportunity to provide a bus shelter supply, operation and maintenance service for bus shelter locations and infrastructure in the Swale Borough area in Kent. Swale Borough Council (SBC) would like to engage with bus shelter providers in regard to supply, installation and maintenance of bus shelters, including some possible living roof shelters, for bus shelter infrastructure managed by SBC in the Swale area and to agree a preferred supplier and product as per SBC's specification. SBC requests that interested suppliers express an interest in this opportunity and share their thoughts and expertise to assist SBC to determine and shape the specification. The solution can be a new design or based on an existing design used elsewhere. Integrated advertising within the shelters can be traditional posters or, subject to location agreement, digital media screens. Providers that are interested but are not registered on the ProContract Portal should register at the following address in the first instance: https://procontract.due-north.com The Council intends to hold a competitive tendering process during 2025/26, to secure these new bus shelters. It is the Council's aim to make the procurement process as easy as possible for bidders to complete. It is anticipated that the initial contract of supply and maintenance will run for approximately 5 years with the provision for an extension of up to 5 years, and a commencement date of April 2026. Your expression of interest must be made via the ProContract Portal, by 12:00 noon on Tuesday 1st July. We would be particularly interested to hear whether you think there is any potential for income generation for the Council through advertising, or whether there is scope to provide living roof shelters at particular locations. Please submit comments via the ProContract messaging function.
