Request For Information - Local Bus Service Contracts - South Buckinghamshire area

Tender description

<p>PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION. THIS IS NOT A TENDER PROCESS. Buckinghamshire Council (the Council) is requesting information about the provision of several Local Bus routes in the South of the County. The Council would like Local Bus Services to help us plan for the future potential configuration of these services when the current contract ends in August 2023. Suppliers are invited to participate in this exercise by completing the questionnaire. This will help the Council understand the views of the supply market. The information obtained from this exercise may be used to inform the Council’s approach to any procurement process it undertakes for the delivery of these services. This document is for information purposes only and suppliers will not be held to any indicative costings nor excluded from any future procurement exercise on the basis of any information they provide. The scope for this request for information (RFI) is detailed in the attached questionnaire and will be seeking to: to understand if there are alternative ways in which the provision around a number of existing local bus contracts that are due for retender can be delivered. This may include: • reorganising the resources currently allocated to those services, • ways in which your commercial services may be adjusted to meet these requirements either in full or in part • ways in which these tendered services may be divided or recombined • ways in which your operating position may enable a more efficiency deployment of these resources Please complete the questionnaire and upload to this portal by 31st March 2023 12pm midday</p> Keywords: PUBLIC TRANSPORT, LOCAL BUSES, PASSENGER TRANSPORT
