Description

Tenders are invited for the supply of services in respect of bus services. As the services involved can be inter-worked to give considerable economies of scale, the 3 services are being issued as a single tender. The provider will be expected to bid to run all the services. The operator must supply its own vehicles to operate these services. The peak vehicle requirement (PVR) is estimated at 8 vehicles: · 5 vehicles for Services L10 and L11 · 3 vehicles for Service L14 The vehicles must be presented in the City Council's 'locallink' brand livery. This must be applied, before the start of the contract, and to the Council's specification, but at the successful tenderer's own expense. The cost of the livery is estimated at £2,000 per bus (£1,000 external, and £1,000 internal). Spare vehicles used on the Contracts should be in the successful tenderer's standard fleet livery. The Council is making a long-term commitment to the operation of low-emission electric vehicles on tendered bus services. For this reason, the life of these Contracts, using conventional diesel vehicles, is currently set at 2 years (+1 +1 years) duration. After that, it is intended that these services would switch to electric bus operation, with vehicles provided by the Council. The tenderer must submit a cost for operating the service, according to the Council Specification. The fare revenue collected from the service must be deducted from the invoice submitted to the Council. The successful supplier will be responsible for providing this service, liaising closely with the Council's Contract Manager. The Council's detailed requirements are defined in the Specification at Part 5.

Additional information: Completion of tender response form must be uploaded electronically, including references by the closing date 13th July 2015 at 12:00
