Description
Establishment of a framework for the supply of contactless smartcards for the TfL ticketing and fare collection system.
Total Quantity or Scope
The Oystercard (the "Card") was launched in 2003. The current demand is around 6.5m - 8.5m cards per year comprising of 16 variants. The Cards enable TfL to collect a significant proportion of its 5 000 000 000 GBP plus revenue from customers using TfL services and some concessionary services. There are a number of variants printed with different artwork to meet the needs of different users of cards. The version of the cards currently in use is the MIFARE DESFire EV1 or EV3 cards. Introduced by TfL in 2010, the DESFire card is a multiprocessor card with 2 000 bytes of memory and utilises 112 bit keys in AES mode (and there are also some 4 000 bytes of memory variants of this card in use). The framework agreement resulting from this procurement will last for four (4) years with the option to extend for up to 2 years. The forecasted value of these orders is between 6 000 000 GBP and 9 000 000 GBP per annum at current levels of demand although this demand may vary. In order to maintain service continuity, agility and provide competition, it is expected that at least three suppliers will be selected for the Framework Agreement. A maximum of 4 suppliers is intended, as this should be sufficient to meet business requirements and generate the appropriate level of competition for call-offs. All cards supplied will be required to comply with the TfL Card Specification and Artwork which will form a schedule to the contract. Cards will be required in 15 different variants physically compliant with ISO 7810 ID-1 as follows: - 14 variants with 2k NXP MIFARE DESFire EV1 or EV3 memory chips, of which 1 variant is plain white and the other 13 variants are printed on both sides with artwork, - 1 variant with 4k NXP MIFARE DESFire EV1 or EV3 memory chips, mostly plain white with minimal artwork printed on one side. Out of scope: The services of enablement, fulfilment and personalisation are not included in the scope of this procurement. TfL will enable the supplied Cards onto the TfL Revenue Collection System and will fulfil customer orders by loading specific travel products and entitlements where required, and will personalise cards for individual users where required. Useful dates: Tender to be issued - 8th November 2024 ITT Suppliers clarification submission deadline 16:00 GMT - 22nd November 2024 TfL clarification questions response to Suppliers Clarification by 16:00 GMT - 27th November 2024 Suppliers Submission of Tender deadline by 16:00 GMT - 17th December 2024
