Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, initiated by Transport for Greater Manchester, sought to secure Systems Analyst Resources for their Rail PAYG and Bee Network Rail Integration programmes, essential for services related to ticketing system analysis. The awarding process, which adhered to a "limited" procurement method due to being below the threshold, culminated on 29th September 2025, with the contract inception on 1st October 2025 and set to conclude on 31st March 2026. This engagement is specifically categorised under recruitment services with activities localised in the UKD region of the United Kingdom. As of 4th November 2025, the procurement status has reached the 'award' stage with a contract value of £67,331.59, awarded to STHREE PARTNERSHIP LLP, headquartered in London.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in systems analysis and technology services, especially those with expertise in payment systems and rail infrastructure, to engage with large public sector clients like Transport for Greater Manchester. Enterprises with a keen understanding of recruitment services and the capability to provide end-to-end solutions that are tailored for regional rail services are especially well-suited to benefit from such contracts. Participation aids in fostering relationships with public authorities, potentially leading to additional projects in the transport sector.
