RE: Slightly off-topic "tenders"
To put a bid in for a tender there are a few steps u have to work out to table your bid: 1.drivers wages for the term of the contract (including any overtime or pay rises involved). 2.amount of fuel usage for the term of the contract (including any fuel rises that may occur). 3.machanical costs for the term of the contract (including broken windows etc). 4.cost of how many buses are to be used on the pvr. 5.any profit you may want to obtain from the contract. Some tenders state wether they want new buses or second hand buses to be used on the tender which could result in the company needing to lease buses to operate the contract which will result to needing to put into your tender process and costs. I yhink merseytravel require buses to be within 15 years old,low floor,correct destinations,etc. Tenders get issued to the sometimes cheapest tenderer or the more suited tenderer who can fit the criteria. Companies are normally allowed a bedding in period to get everthing sorted in the first month of operating the contract and after the bedding in period they will get points deducted for different things: 1.early running/late running with out good reasoning. 2.displaying incorrect destinations. 3.using incorrect buses (non compliant of terms and conditions set out in the contract). Nornally they are given 100 points to start off with then thats what the points get taken away from and when they reach 00 the contract may result in being taken away from the operator and given out on an emergency tender. |
