## Summary

Medway Council is actively managing a procurement process titled "Medway Bus Services – Dynamic Purchasing System" under the transport services category, specifically excluding waste transport. This process is positioned to establish a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for local bus services in Medway, United Kingdom. The procurement stage is currently in the tender update phase as of 30th September 2025. The primary procurement method utilised is a restricted procedure within a selective procurement approach, incorporating electronic submissions through platforms such as the Kent Business Portal. The tender is designed for a duration of approximately 2880 days without renewal options, aiming to conduct mini-competitions for route contracts under the established DPS framework.

This procurement method offers substantial opportunities for transport service providers, particularly those specialising in bus operations, to expand their business operations by participating in competitive bidding processes for route contracts. Businesses that can accommodate electronic submissions and comply with the legal and procedural stipulations outlined by Medway Council will find this avenue conducive to growth. The DPS approach reduces the entry barrier for bus operators, encouraging a diverse range of companies to secure service provision contracts in the Medway region, fostering both regional service enhancement and economic development.
