## Summary

Cheshire East Council procured a Real Time Passenger Information System for public transport services. The requirement covers transport equipment and associated products used to provide passenger information, with delivery across Cheshire. The system is intended for deployment at bus stops and exchanges, supporting the display or communication of current passenger and service information. The procurement is categorised as goods rather than construction or a standalone professional service. It is relevant to suppliers of real-time passenger information technology, passenger transport equipment, roadside or interchange information displays, and businesses able to install and support equipment across multiple public transport locations. The council is based in Crewe and is the public-sector organisation buying and using the system.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a selective competitive call-off under a framework. It had one lot. J M W SYSTEMS LIMITED was awarded the contract on 17 August 2026. The contract was signed on 1 September 2026 and runs from 11 September 2026 to 31 August 2031. Its value is £424,350 excluding VAT and £509,220 including VAT. The contract is active. The council can vary the arrangement to add equipment at additional sites, including bus stops and exchanges. The award was above the relevant threshold. The published outcome identifies a framework-based competitive process as the basis for the award; detailed quality, technical and price weightings are not provided here.

For a future requirement of this kind, credible competitors would need to supply and support a real-time passenger information system rather than only provide generic transport hardware. Relevant capability includes designing or configuring passenger information equipment, integrating live service data, supplying robust displays or other roadside and interchange equipment, and installing it across a distributed network of bus stops and exchanges. The ability to manage additional sites and variations would be important, as would practical delivery, maintenance and technical support for a council-wide public transport estate. The award to an SME shows that a specialist smaller supplier can meet the requirement, while experience delivering reliable passenger-facing systems for a public authority would strengthen a competitor’s position.
