This tender, titled "TfL95293 - Framework Agreement for Cartography Services," aims to address various cartography requirements, including bus, tube, rail, and legible London mapping services. The tender is currently in the open procedure stage and is set to conclude on 8 April 2022.

Firms that can create and update maps in various styles or possess experience in transportation-related cartographic needs are particularly encouraged to participate. The framework also allows for potential collaboration with other Greater London Authority entities, opening doors for a wider range of services and increased business growth potential.
