## Summary

The current procurement process is being conducted by Transport for London (TfL) for the "Royal Docks Cycle Hire Trial Scheme." This initiative falls under the road transport services category and aims to enhance connectivity within the Royal Docks area in London. The tender is open and is set to conclude on 6th December 2019. The contractual obligations are scheduled to commence on 30th March 2020 and will last until 30th March 2025. The procurement method is an open procedure, inviting a wide range of suppliers to participate.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), to expand their operations in the sustainable transport sector. Firms capable of providing infrastructure, bicycles, maintenance services, and management for cycle hire schemes would be particularly well-suited to compete. Engaging in this contract could potentially open new revenue streams and enhance a company's reputation through participation in a high-visibility public transport initiative.

## Notice

The GLA's Royal Docks Team (RDT) will cover the capital cost of the docking stations, installation and bikes. The operator will manage the maintenance of the cycle hire scheme and there will be no additional costs to the RDT following installation.
