## About this tender

In 2005 LBSL awarded a 10-year contract to Siemens for the bus communication system known as iBus (the Contract). The Contract was novated to Trapeze ITS Switzerland GmBH Limited (Trapeze) in October 2009. In 2015, the parties agreed to extend the Contract from May 2015 for up to 7 years, such that it would terminate in May 2022.

TfL is competitively procuring the next generation system, iBus2, under the PCR 2015. TfL initially expected the iBus2 procurement to be completed before 2022. However, the iBus2 procurement has taken longer than foreseen and is still ongoing.

Consequently, LBSL now needs to extend the Contract term for up to a further 5 years (3 years initial term, plus options for two one-year extensions) until May 2027 (the "Extension") to allow for completion of the iBus2 procurement and transition to the resulting new arrangements. As explained at IV.1.1 below, TfL and LBSL consider that the Extension benefits from the exemption in Reg. 72(1)(b) PCR.
