## Summary

The Bath and North East Somerset Council is currently conducting a tender for supported bus services in the region, aiming to enhance transport services including city services and circular services. The tender, valued at £1,800,000, falls under the "Transport services (excl. Waste transport)" category and is classified as an open procurement method. Key dates of interest include the tender period, which concludes on 20th April 2018, and the contract period set to commence on 2nd September 2018 and extend until 3rd September 2021.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses involved in transport and logistics, especially those that can provide road transport services and public-service buses. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector organisations (VCSEs) are particularly encouraged to participate, as their involvement may align with the council's objectives of fostering local suppliers. Companies capable of delivering public transport solutions, including bus operation management, maintenance, and scheduling, would be well-positioned to compete for this contract.
