The Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority E-Scooter Trials Market Engagement Event What we are looking for This is a real chance to make a transformational difference in the Cambridgeshire Peterborough region! The purpose of the market engagement event is to gather market opinion of the Combined Authority and partners potential delivery model, supplier selection method and proposal for an E-Scooter trial. The Combined Authority seeks to gain alignment with industry capability and expectations regarding procurement and delivery and ensuring that we are meeting the overall strategic objectives as set out by our Local Transport Plan. Participants should see the market supplier event process as an opportunity to inform the delivery strategy of the professional services drawing on past experiences and future challenges. Market Sounding Event The event will be informal and is designed to let you ask any questions about the process of competing (no matter how basic!), and find out how the Combined Authority will want to procure an operator or several depending on interest.

We have structured our thoughts as follows under 4 key topics: 1.Your interest in the project 2.Structuring the trial process 3.Barriers and enablers to delivery 4.Charging and Risk sharing 5.Procurement and Contractual considerations The virtual market sounding event will include: •Presentations by key representatives from the Combined Authority and partners from Cambridgeshire County Council, Greater Cambridge Partnership and Smart Cambridge. •Opportunities to meet other operators from across the industry •A questions and answers session •A programme for next steps and operator presentations
