This project falls within the transport services industry category and aims to facilitate a 12-month trial period, commencing on 30th September 2020 and concluding on 29th September 2021. The procurement process is currently in the Award stage following an open procedure through which opportunities were initially made available until 8th September 2020. The procurement is intended to take place in the South East region of the United Kingdom, specifically at the Isle of Wight Council's offices in Newport. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in electric vehicles, transport solutions, or technology services aimed at enhancing urban mobility. Companies that can offer innovative solutions for e-scooter rental services or demonstrate experience in operating similar transportation trials will be particularly well-suited to compete. If successful, this trial could lead to long-term contracts should the use of e-scooters be legalised in the UK, thus offering a potential avenue for growth and expansion in environmentally sustainable transport services. ## Notice The Isle of Wight Council ("the Authority") invites Proposals from suitably qualified suppliers ("Potential Suppliers") for the provision of an Electric Scooter Trial on the Isle of Wight. The Department for Transport (DfT) announced in May that they are fast-tracking and expanding trials of rental e-scooters across the country to promote a green recovery from COVID 19. They will help mitigate the effects of current reduced public transport capacity and support other social distancing options on our transport infrastructure. The trials will also provide evidence to inform final decisions about whether and how to fully legalise e-scooters in the UK. The Isle of Wight Council (IWC) welcomes the opportunity to participate in the hosting of electric scooter trials and recognises the opportunity which electric scooters offer for short and medium distance trips, and the potential that they have to replace private car journeys. The Isle of Wight Council wishes to select one operator to collaboratively develop an e-scooter trial for 12 months that is suitable for our community. Should the trial prove to be successful and the use of e-scooters is legalised in the UK, we will be looking to develop long-term deployments beyond the trial period.
