What is being bought
**This is not an invitation to tender**
TfL's Dial-a-Ride (DAR),Assisted Transport and London Councils Taxi and PHV Services offering strives to provide its Taxicard and Assisted Taxi scheme members with a reliable and punctual individual-tailored transport service, at a rate that aligns with the current market.
The core requirement is to ensure we can continue to support individuals in the local community who are vulnerable and may be mobility impaired to reach their final destination. It is therefore crucial that this service maintains its current service standards and no qualifying member of the schemes is left without their ride.
This Market Sounding Questionnaire (MSQ) is being jointly issued by two entities - Transport for London and London Councils. It seeks to obtain market feedback in relation to an anticipated procurement of the services ca £.5-8 m p.a. and seeks to shape the procurement strategy and tender pack which combines TfL's Dial a Ride (DaR) Taxis/PHVs and London Councils Taxicard requirements.
This Early Market Engagement (EME) activity aims to gain insight into the current Taxi/PHV aggregator market in order to understand the appetite, capacity, technology and maturity of the market in relation to these specific requirements, including any perceived risks, opportunities and cost drivers.
