Public Sector Tenders

Milton Keynes City Council (MKCC) is seeking market engagement with suppliers of public transport booking, ticketing and Mobility as a Service (MaaS) solutions. The engagement has two objectives: 1. To assess market interest in providing a booking application for MK Tech Week 2026, supporting the pilot operation of Ohmio autonomous shuttles within Central Milton Keynes. The pilot will provide an opportunity to test integration between autonomous vehicle services and third-party booking platforms, explore passenger management for driverless services, and evaluate the commercial viability of a future flexible transport service. 2. To understand the capabilities of MaaS and integrated ticketing platforms that could support MKCC's longer-term transport ambitions, including franchising opportunities, multimodal ticketing, demand responsive transport, integrated journey planning, data-driven network design, and seamless interchange across transport modes. MKCC invites organisations to share information on their products, integration capabilities, booking and payment functionality, data and analytics services, ticketing solutions, and experience supporting autonomous, flexible, or multimodal transport services. Feedback will help inform the Council's future approach to public transport innovation, integrated mobility services, and network development across Milton Keynes. Any questions relating to this market engagement should be made via correspondence on the InTend website.

Stonewater currently utilises a Cost Sharing Vehicle (CSV) for the delivery of multiple Responsive Repairs and Empty Homes Maintenance Services across its West Rural Region. This is done in conjunction with two other Registered Housing Providers (RPs), utilising one RP’s Direct Labour Organisation (DLO). However, owing to one of the RPs exiting the agreement, the CSV is no longer viable to the remaining parties and will expire on 31st December 2026. Having initially considered splitting service the requirements and the overall geography of the proposed region, it was decided that this approach did not align with Stonewater’s strategic objectives and would not deliver sufficiently against the needs of the organisation and our customers. It was therefore agreed that the tender would be closed with this revised tender exercise taking its place. Stonewater, therefore, requires third-party contractor support to deliver its annual pipeline of responsive repairs and an empty homes maintenance service, against a defined specification, within its whole West-Rural geographical locality. The areas covered within the locality include, but are not limited to Gloucester, Tewkesbury, Stroud, Forest of Dean, Cirencester, Fairford, Tetbury, Stratford Upon-Avon, Pershore, Kidderminster, Shrewsbury, Ludlow, Bridgnorth, Worcester, Hereford, Ewyas Harold, Malvern and Tenbury Wells.
