This opportunity falls under the services category, with a contract value of £70,000 in GBP. The procurement method is an open procedure, and interested parties must submit their tenders by the deadline of December 22, 2023. The contract period will start on April 1, 2024, and run until March 31, 2026. The council aims to improve public transport information accessibility by updating and monitoring bus services within Leicestershire. This tender from Leicestershire County Council for a Bus Timetable and Route Management System provides an opportunity for IT and software development companies to enhance their service offerings. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to participate. Businesses that can provide consulting services and support for information systems stand to benefit from this procurement opportunity. The contract duration and the potential for extensions create a stable and potentially long-term business opportunity within the public transport sector. ## Notice Bus operators are required to register local bus services with the Traffic Commissioner at least 42 days prior to the commencement of a new service or of a service change. At the same time that the operator applies to register the service, they are required to provide a copy of the registration to any local authority within which the service will operate. On receipt of the registration, Leicestershire County Council (LCC) input the details on to its route and timetable management system. The registration data is then uploaded to the server of the Traveline website to ensure the most up to date public transport travel information is always available to the public. The contract for the current management system has now come to an end. LCC is now looking to retender for a management system to oversee the bus route and timetable data for all bus services within Leicestershire, with the ability to monitor and update service frequencies and changes to service provision The Services will be for an initial period of 2 year(s) with an option to extend the Contract upon expiry of the initial period of 2 years, at 1-year intervals (2+1+1+1). The implementation and migration periods will not form part of the initial period. Therefore, the Contract will be in place from the Effective Date and the Contract Period will run from the Commencement Date as defined in the 'Conditions Of Contract' ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/6b0412c9-b927-4e6f-a61c-72f974fa876d | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 8 Dec 2023 | | Submission deadline | 22 Dec 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 Mar 2024 - 31 Mar 2026 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £70,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LEICESTERSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL | | Locality | LEICESTER | | Post town | Leicester | | Postcode | LE3 8RA | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLF East Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLF2 Leicestershire, Rutland and Northamptonshire | | ITL 3 | TLF22 Leicestershire CC and Rutland | | Local authority | Blaby | | Electoral ward | Glenfield Faire | | Westminster constituency | Mid Leicestershire | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 48 - Software package and information systems - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ### Codes - 48000000 - Software package and information systems - 72000000 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ## Release History - 8 Dec 2023 at 12:52 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/6b0412c9-b927-4e6f-a61c-72f974fa876d - 8 Dec 2023 at 12:22 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a2635c37-c1b3-40ed-8d5e-d284d5130aef ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/6b0412c9-b927-4e6f-a61c-72f974fa876d 8th December 2023 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a2635c37-c1b3-40ed-8d5e-d284d5130aef 8th December 2023 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=f548a52c-f131-ee11-8124-005056b64545 Advert ## Notice URLs - https://www.eastmidstenders.org/index.html ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
