    Brief

    North Northamptonshire Council invites eligible suppliers to participate in a framework agreement for bus services across the North Northamptonshire area.

The framework is established under the Procurement Act 2023, and all specific service contracts will be awarded through competitive tendering. Suppliers interested in providing bus services should note that call-off contracts will be awarded only through further competition.
