## Summary

Transport for London (TfL) is undertaking the procurement of services for the Legible London map-based on-street signage programme. This involves the manufacture, supply, installation, and maintenance of wayfinding totems. The procurement is structured as a selective, restricted procedure for a single-supplier framework, beginning in August 2024 with an initial term of two years and an optional extension of up to two additional years. This framework agreement will cater to entities such as the Greater London Authority, its subsidiaries, other functional bodies, and any of the London Boroughs.

The manufacture and supply of Legible London products, including the production of replacement signs, panels and map refreshes; 2.

The reactive maintenance/making safe and installation of replacement parts and map refreshes of the Legible London wayfinding system; 4. A comprehensive works management data log to track all activities undertaken on Legible London signs, products and replacement parts with regular reporting to TfL. Additional, ancillary or incidental works, services or supplies related to the scope described above may be required to facilitate the delivery of each call-off contract. This may include: i. the cleaning of Legible London products, including graffiti removal, sticker removal and/or removal of other items which impact the appearance and legibility of the product as required. ii. undertaking inspections and audits of Legible London signage within the Greater London Authority area. The contract will be in the form of a single supplier framework, with the agreement available to: (i) the Greater London Authority or any of its subsidiaries or other functional bodies (from time to time); (ii) any of the London Boroughs; and/or (iii) any contractor (including a developer) nominated by: - Transport for London; - any other member of the TfL Group or the Greater London Authority; - any of its subsidiaries or other functional bodies (from time to time); - any of the London Boroughs; or - any combination of such parties. The framework agreement term is for two (2) years from August 2024 with the option to extend up to two a further (2) years.
