Stage 1: Concept Design,
Stage 2: Detailed Design, Testing and Commissioning
Stage 3: Manufacture, Install and Supply for key locations
Stage 4: Ongoing supply and install across the network
SYMCA are open for suppliers to approach this commission as a consortium or joint venture project team, to ensure that the appropriate design ambition is achieved.
We are looking for designs that are beautiful but not at the expense of functionality; ambitious but achievable; distinctive but durable and inspiring while remaining safe, inclusive and practical for everyday use.
The consultant shall undertake the role of Principal Designer under the Construction Design Management (CDM) regulations 2015 for the initial design stages of the commission and will then undertake the role of Principal Contractor under the CDM regulations 2015 for the "Build" stage of the commission.

The purpose of this market engagement is to define the initial scope and procurement requirements for a Specialist Highway Surfacing and Pavement Preservation Framework to support the delivery of the City of Doncaster Council's Highway Asset Management Strategy. The framework will enable the Council to engage specialist contractors for preventative maintenance, carriageway preservation, network renewal and surface treatment activities.

Provision of Local Bus Services in North East Lincolnshire
The principal purpose of this preliminary market engagement is to understand how integrated ticketing could be maintained and developed under a future contract for supported local bus services. The Authority wishes to explore the practical arrangements required to enable passengers to use appropriate tickets across services operated by different providers. This may include ticket acceptance, revenue apportionment, settlement arrangements, ticketing technology, third-party dependencies, costs, mobilisation timescales and any interim arrangements required from contract commencement. Responses will help the Authority develop integrated-ticketing requirements that are proportionate, deliverable and capable of supporting a straightforward passenger experience. The engagement will also inform the Authority’s procurement strategy and future service specification but will not commit the Authority to undertaking a procurement exercise or adopting a particular solution.
Wakefield Council is preparing to establish an Open Framework for Surface Dressing of highways and footpaths.

Delivery of York's home to school transport service for multiple routes to our maintained schools.
We expect these to be delivered via buses of varying sizes and taxis.
Our previous contract was split into 7 Lots with an approximate value of £5.6million total (excl VAT). Whilst we expect the value to remain similar but in line with cost increases, we are considering a restructure of the Lots.
York is also considering including some of the shared routes for our Adult Social Care needs. This may increase the total value of the procurement by a further £400,000 excl VAT.
