Description

Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) wishes to implement a DPS from which TfGM will procure Subsidised
Services including but not limited to: Network Bus Services, Subsidised Bus Services, Resource Contracts,
Demand Response contracts and Metroshuttle contracts. The DPS will provide TfGM with a selection of
qualified operators to supply tendered services in areas where there is a social need that is not served by the
commercial bus network.
For full unrestricted access to the tender documents please visit https://procontract.due-north.com/
Please note the tender documents will be made available from the 21st November 2024.

With this being a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) there is no guarantee of any specific amount or type of work being allocated to any of the operators (including the Highest Scoring Supplier).

All contracts awarded under the DPS will follow further competitions which will commence early 2025. Only qualified operators that are on the DPS will be invited to participate.
