18C205 - PHASE 1 Registration of Interest (ROI) for the Provision of Bus Passenger Transport Services for the Adelaide Metropolitan Public Transport Network

Description

The Department of Planning Transport and Infrastructure (DPTI) are conducting a ROI process to register interested parties participation in an Invitation to Supply (ITS) process to operate bus services in Metropolitan Adelaide. The ITS is an exciting opportunity to participate in the reform of the Adelaide Metro bus service network to improve public transport for the people of Adelaide.

Background

This ITS process involves two phases. A group of bus service contract areas have been allocated to each phase and the release of these phases to the market will occur in two separate stages.

This ROI relates to the first phase (Phase 1) of the ITS process. The second phase (Phase 2) will be released to the market in July 2019. Successful registration of this ROI will enable Parties to participate and provide submissions for both phases of the ITS process.

Registration of Interest Process and Access to the Data Room

To inform the ITS process, DPTI will be making available the use of an electronic Data Room.

To access the Data Room, Interested Parties must complete a “Non-Disclosure Deed”, “Registration of Interest Document”, “Data Room Rules” and “Bidder’s User Request Form For Access to the Data Room” (attached to this ROI notice) and submit the completed forms via email to [email hidden] by no later than 5:00PM (Adelaide Time)
Thursday, 1 August 2019.

Note: The Non-Disclosure Deed (NDD) relates to confidential information disclosed at any time during the process. An additional NDD will only be required if additional entities are included in the team.
