## Summary

The procurement process for the "Bus Data Capture" project was conducted by Oxfordshire County Council. This project requires a consultant to capture and record all bus stop facilities across Oxfordshire, providing a comprehensive ongoing management and reporting tool. The contract was awarded to Externiture Ltd, a large-scale supplier based in Berkshire, through a direct award method. The procurement, classified under the transport systems consultancy services category (CPV 71311200), completed at the award stage on 16 September 2025. The contract period spans from 23 September 2025 to 31 March 2026, with a value of £85,000.

This tender presents significant opportunities for companies specialising in transport systems consultancy, particularly those experienced in data management and reporting tools for public transport infrastructures. While the direct award method indicates a less competitive tender process, businesses that can offer innovative solutions in management and reporting tools may find long-term partnership prospects with local councils. Companies capable of delivering scalable projects and those already engaged in similar frameworks (like infrastructure frameworks) would be well-suited to compete effectively in future similar procurements.
