Any applicant that has previously applied for inclusion on the Greater Manchester Bus Franchise Qualification System will therefore need to access the updated Passport Selection Questionnaire from Pro-Contract and submit an application in response to this call for competition. For the avoidance of doubt, potential Suppliers should note that alongside this QSN, updates have also been made to the QSN Supplement, Passport Selection Questionnaire (PSQ) and Passport Process Document (PPD). Some amendments have been made to the qualification criteria in the updated PSQ. As such, potential Suppliers who have responded to the previous QSN and PSQ will need to submit a response to the updated PSQ (including all updated qualification criteria). Applicants may apply for inclusion on the Qualification System at any time during the period of its validity. The GMCA and TfGM are using the Pro-Contract e-tendering portal ([procontract.due-north.com](https://procontract.due-north.com)) to conduct and administer this procurement exercise. Applicants will need to register their details on the Pro-Contract e-tendering portal. Once registered, applicants will be emailed a log-in and password which will allow applicants to gain access to the documents. All submissions at whatever stage of the Qualification System must be submitted through the Pro-Contract e-tendering portal. Further detail can be found in the associated document QSN II.2.4 Supplement - Description of the procurement, which can be found on the Pro-Contract E-Tendering portal ([procontract.due-north.com/register](https://procontract.due-north.com/register)).
