Details

The DRT scheme (Tiger on Demand) is a flexible service that provides shared transport to users who specify their desired location and time of pick-up and drop-off using an app or call centre. It will offer travel to any location within each individual zone and interchange with fixed route public transport services at specific points. The service will connect residents who have little or no access to regular and scheduled bus services to work, leisure, education and social wellbeing opportunities. The Contractor is required to supply the required vehicle(s), drivers, supervisory staff, maintenance staff and cleaning staff, plus technology to enable integration with the back-office elements of the DRT scheme. The number of vehicles for each zone is as follows: East Cambridgeshire – 2 x 22 seat vehicles. Fenland – 1 x 16 seat vehicle. South Cambridgeshire – 2 x 16 seat vehicles. Huntingdonshire – 3 x 22 seat vehicles. The service will operate Monday to Saturday between 06:30 and 19:00. No service on Sunday

Documents

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this transport & logistics opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.
  • Note how bids must be submitted (online or physical), in what format, and whether a digital signature or portal registration is required.
  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
