## Summary

The Strathclyde Partnership for Transport (SPT) has completed a public procurement process for "Banking and Merchant Services" with the aim of engaging suitably qualified contractors. The tender was active until 20th December 2018 and was divided into two lots: Lot One for Banking Services and Lot Two for Merchant Services, both located in Glasgow. This open procedure allowed tenderers to submit bids for one or both lots, with a contract duration of three years and the possibility of two one-year extensions. The key award date for the contracts was 22nd February 2019.
