## Summary

The West Midlands Combined Authority is seeking proposals for the "West Midlands Bikeshare Scheme," a tender aimed at delivering a comprehensive bike share solution across seven urban areas in the West Midlands, including Birmingham and Coventry. This competitive dialogue procurement, valued at £20 million, is in the tender stage, with submissions due by 28 October 2019. The contract period will commence on 1 April 2020 and extend for five years, with the possibility of three additional one-year extensions based on the supplier's performance. The classification of this procurement falls under services, specifically focusing on non-motorised bicycles.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in bicycle manufacturing, infrastructure development, and service provision in urban mobility solutions. Companies that can demonstrate expertise in creating docking systems, managing bike-sharing technology, or providing maintenance services would be particularly well-suited to compete. The project not only encourages innovation in sustainable transport but also promotes local economic development within the West Midlands area.

## Notice

WMCA is seeking a single supplier to provide a high quality bike share scheme, with docking infrastructure and hybrid solutions, across the urban areas within each of the seven constituent authorities (Birmingham, Coventry, Dudley, Sandwell, Solihull, Walsall and Wolverhampton) for a term of five years with potential for extension by up to 3 years in three separate 12-month extensions at the Authority's discretion (dependent on the supplier's achievement of key milestones).
