Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, initiated by Transport For Greater Manchester, revolves around the tender titled "April Tenders 2017 (batch 1)" within the transport services industry. With a total contract value of £1,005,045, this procurement is currently in the Award stage and the contract period spans from April 17, 2017, to April 27, 2019. The tender period concluded on October 26, 2016. The scope of delivery addresses areas across the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, the Isle of Man, the Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for transportation service providers, particularly those specialising in bus and coach services, as it facilitates a sizeable contract securing multiple routes. Businesses that fall within the small and medium enterprises (SME) category would be particularly well-suited to compete, as the procurement is structured to favour smaller organisations. The winning contracts have already been awarded to notable suppliers including Cumfybus, First Manchester, M Travel, Stagecoach, and Stotts Tours, indicating a competitive landscape that can accommodate new entrants.
