Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Transport (DfT) in the UK is initiating a market engagement activity titled "Expanding Pay As You Go on Rail in the South East". This process falls under the goods procurement category, specifically focusing on transport tickets, and is currently in the planning stage. Suppliers are invited to a presentation on 7 September 2021, with a registration deadline set for 5pm BST on 2 September 2021. The engagement aims to assess market capabilities in delivering a contactless EMV-based PAYG solution that integrates with the existing Transport for London (TfL) system.
