    Brief

    Translink is selling end-of-service buses, coaches, and associated spare parts to qualified suppliers. The organization is establishing a Dynamic Market (DM) to create a pre-approved supplier list. Selected suppliers will be invited to participate in competitive mini-auctions to purchase batches of surplus vehicles and parts. This is an ongoing opportunity for businesses interested in acquiring used public transport vehicles and components for resale, refurbishment, or parts harvesting. Suppliers must apply to join the approved list before participating in individual bidding rounds.
