This procurement falls under the Road Transport Services category and is aimed at providing services across two Lots: Lot 1 for Central Southern England and Lot 2 for the Isle of Wight. The tender period concludes on 11 March 2022, and the contracted services will commence on 1 June 2022, running until 30 June 2026, with the possibility of extensions up to a total of approximately 10 years. This open procedure procurement process is backed by a funding allocation of £2 million from the Department for Transport, intended for launching these bike share schemes. This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in transport services, particularly those engaged in bike rentals, maintenance, and related micromobility solutions. Companies with experience in handling diverse vehicle types, such as manual, electric, and cargo bikes, as well as software development for transport management systems, would be well-suited to compete for this contract. The funding structure allows for flexibility, encouraging innovative proposals that ensure sustainability beyond the initial funding period. By participating in this framework, businesses can tap into the growing demand for environmentally friendly transport solutions in the Solent region. ## Notice Portsmouth City Council ('the council'), on behalf of Solent Transport, is establishing a multi-supplier, multi-Lot Framework Agreement for the provision of shared bike rental schemes in the Solent Transport area. The Framework Agreement is made up of 2 Lots, with each Lot consisting of 3-4 suppliers: o Lot 1 - Central Southern England o Lot 2 - Isle of Wight Bike share rental schemes are planned for Portsmouth, Southampton and on the Isle of Wight. Contracts for delivery of these schemes will be awarded in parallel with the establishment of the framework. The highest ranked tenderer on Lot 1 will be awarded separate contracts by Portsmouth and Southampton City Councils. The highest ranked tenderer on Lot 2 will be awarded a contract by Isle of Wight Council. Solent Transport is a partnership of the four Local Transport Authorities in the Solent Region (the council, Southampton City Council, Hampshire County Council and Isle of Wight Council). Solent Transport successfully bid for funding from the Department for Transport to establish a Future Transport Zone (FTZ). The FTZ bid includes ?2million that can be allocated to launch bike share schemes. This funding available is forecast to be split as follows: o Portsmouth and Southampton: ?1.6million - ?1.8million o Isle of Wight: ?200,000 - ?400,000 Tenderers have the option of taking up all, some or none of the available funding.
