## Summary

The procurement process titled "PMC - Call Connect Demand Responsive Public Transport" is initiated by North Lincolnshire Council, focusing on road transport services in the Yorkshire and the Humber region of the United Kingdom. Currently in the planning stage, the process invites market engagement until the engagement end date of 19 December 2018. This tender aims to explore alternative operational solutions for demand responsive bus services, with the relevant contract expiring in March 2019.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in transport and logistics, particularly those specialising in demand responsive transportation solutions. Companies with expertise in service optimisation, innovative scheduling, and customer engagement would be well-suited to compete. Additionally, businesses offering technological solutions for booking systems and vehicle management may find this tender to be a promising avenue for growth, as North Lincolnshire Council seeks alternatives to enhance its transport services.

## Notice

As part of the Department for Transport (DfT) sponsored Total Transport Projects, North Lincolnshire Council developed a pilot project to test the viability and feasibility of demand responsive bus services in the more rural parts of the authority's area. The contract to operate the services is due to expire shortly (March 2019) and the Council is keen to consider what other options might be open to it. The purpose of this PMC is to ask the market what it considers might be alternative operating solutions to manage and run the Call Connect Demand Responsive Transport (DRT) services including but not restricted to the hours of operation, the makeup of the areas covered, the way the services could be marketed, the types of vehicles operated and how passengers could book travel.
