## Summary

Blackpool Council is initiating a procurement process titled "Expression of Interest for Blackpool Transport Services Electric Vehicle (EV) Infrastructure". This initiative falls under the category of goods within the energy industry, specifically focusing on the implementation of electric buses and their associated infrastructure. The procurement is currently in the planning stage, with a future notice expected on 8 December 2021, and the relevant activities are to take place in the UK, particularly in Blackpool (region UKD42). This is designed as an exploratory dialogue rather than a formal tender exercise, allowing organisations to understand potential requirements and delivery models.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for companies specialising in electric vehicle technology, infrastructure development, and energy solutions. Businesses that possess experience in public transport partnerships, especially those well-versed in electric mobility and sustainable transport solutions, would be ideal candidates to engage in this market dialogue. By participating in these discussions, companies can position themselves favourably for future formal procurement processes that Blackpool Council may initiate.
