The initiative, which has an estimated value of £100 million, aims to engage potential suppliers through an Early Market Engagement (EME) event scheduled for 14 February 2019. Interested parties must book their attendance by 7 February 2019, as places are limited. The engagement will take place in London, and further details can be found on the TfL website.
