Located in Gloucester, UK, this contracting process is aimed at structuring a new Bus Shelter and Advertising Contract. There is a preliminary market engagement notice published on 22 April 2025, with a milestone set for an informal engagement session by 30 May 2025. The procurement process is following a concession special regime, and the new contract is scheduled to begin in April 2026 and run until March 2030, with potential renewal extending to March 2031. This tender process offers substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) within the advertising services industry. Businesses with expertise in public sector contracts and those adept at handling advertising and service delivery at a regional level can find this opportunity rewarding. The engagement session provides a platform for dialogue, allowing potential bidders to address past barriers and tailor their proposals effectively, positioning themselves for success in this strategically planned procurement by Gloucestershire County Council. ## Notice Gloucestershire County Council are looking to procure the Bus Shelter and Advertising Contract later this year. Our current contract has come to an end with 3 month extensions added to the incumbent supplier with the intention of awarding the new contract to the successful supplier April 2026. We are currently planning the way we structure the contract to encourage bidders.
