Train Information Services Limited has issued a contract award notice for the TravelNet Systems Bus Replacement Service under solicitation number 2026/S 000-088368. The contract is a direct award to TravelNet Systems with a total value of 439,200 pounds excluding VAT. The agreement spans a three-year term, effective from September 30, 2026, through September 29, 2029. The decision to utilize a direct award rather than a competitive tender is based on critical technical requirements. Specifically, the incumbent supplier possesses essential Darwin integrations and established aggregator relationships within the Train Operating Company ecosystems. The agency determined that transitioning to an alternative supplier would result in incompatibility and disproportionate technical and operational difficulties, as it would require substantial redevelopment of embedded systems.

Full Description

Show more
This is not a “sole source” in market terms. This paper recommends direct awards to the two incumbent suppliers, each serving distinct TOC ecosystems. Alternative suppliers exist in the market; however, no alternative supplier has been identified that can currently deliver using the existing Darwin integrations and aggregator relationships without causing incompatibility and disproportionate technical and operational difficulty or requiring substantial redevelopment, due to their embedded position within each TOC and the TOCs’ bus service aggregators.

Microtransit, Paratransit and Turnkey Transportation Services
Solicitation # 2026-RFP -3
NEORide, a Council of Governments supporting coordinated public transit across 13 states, is soliciting proposals for Microtransit, Paratransit, and Turnkey Transportation Services under solicitation 2026-RFP-3. The procurement aims to establish a Master Services Agreement (MSA) for a three-year initial term starting in 2027, with two optional one-year renewals. NEORide intends to award the contract to up to two responsive proposers. The scope is divided into two primary components: a SaaS-based Mobility Platform for booking, scheduling, and dispatch, and full Turnkey Services encompassing fleet acquisition, staffing, maintenance, and operational management. All services must comply with ADA paratransit and Federal Transit Administration (FTA) requirements, including 2 CFR 200 and 2 CFR 1201. The contract is structured so that NEORide members purchase services through individual Participation Agreements, and the awarded vendors invoice these member agencies directly. NEORide itself incurs no costs; instead, it is funded by a 1% administrative fee paid by the contractors based on actual project sales. Technical requirements include 99.95% system availability, NIST-aligned cybersecurity standards, and specific integrations with EZfare, GTFS Flex, and EZConnect. Proposals are due by November 20, 2026, and will be evaluated on a 100-point scale consisting of a written technical and pricing proposal and a demonstration phase. Awardees must provide comprehensive insurance coverage, including Workers Compensation and Commercial General Liability, and adhere to strict federal nondiscrimination and labor laws.
