4. Regularly inform WMCA of the progress of the scheme
 5. Provide an input into WMCA's general communication of the scheme

Suppliers are encouraged to provide a quote for the requirements detailed within the Price Schedule (Appendix 2). Suppliers are also invited to quote for additional services that they believe may meet the needs of WMCA*.

* Denotes: Whilst Suppliers are encouraged to price for additional services other than those specified the Price Schedule bidders are reminded that these will not form part of the wider evaluation piece (and therefore subsequently not scored).
