Summary of the contracting process

The West Midlands Combined Authority is currently in the planning stage of the "West Midlands Bike Share Scheme: Market Consultation". This initiative falls under the category of "Motorcycles, bicycles and sidecars" and is aimed at implementing a bike share scheme across urban areas within the West Midlands, including Birmingham, Coventry, Dudley, Sandwell, Solihull, Walsall, and Wolverhampton. A market consultation event is scheduled for 5th September 2019, with a deadline for expressing interest by 30th August 2019 at 17:00.

Engaging in this consultation allows businesses to shape the procurement process and potentially secure a contract for providing essential services in the region.
