This process will take around two years to arrive at a decision point on franchising with procurement and implementation to follow.To enable swift delivery of the above, funding has been allocated to create a team to develop the assessment and provide / commission additional support such as legal and commercial advice. This tender will aim to secure the resources needed to deliver these requirements.
