About the buyer

Transport for Greater Manchester is the local transport body behind the Bee Network, buying with its own team of CIPS-qualified procurement professionals. Tenders are advertised on ProContract, the organisation's own e-tendering portal. Larger opportunities are published as Pipeline Notices on Find a Tender, with older award notices held on Contracts Finder. Established frameworks, run either externally or in-house, cover much of what TfGM buys for ease and speed. Bus contracts follow a separate route, procured through the Bee Network's bus franchising model. Suppliers can reach the procurement team directly by email for guidance on bidding.

UK local government drives £140bn in annual procurement, led by social protection (£66.6bn) and education (£57.1bn).

Over the past 5 years, most of Transport for Greater Manchester's contract awards have been in business services, transport services and IT services.
