AN EXEMPLARY APPROACH IN THE

FRAMEWORK OF THE PUBLIC PROCUREMENT
LAW NO. 4734 FOR ELECTRIC BUS PURCHASES

BY LOCAL GOVERNMENTS

Orhan TOPAL

ABSTRACT
It is considered that the main public transportation strategies, supported by
country- wide policies, should be established in order to control and reduce
emissions originating from transportation, especially by local governments in
Türkiye. These policies necessitate the presentation of innovative approaches,
different from traditional methods, in the wide lane from procurement to
operation of the preferred transportation concept. In this study, different
business models for the supply of electric buses for public transportation
systems have been evaluated within the framework of the implementation
of the Public Procurement Law No. 4734 for Türkiye. An exemplary tender
approach model based on competitiveness, specific to the supply of electric
buses, has been put forward in order to raise awareness especially for public
transportation authorities and operators.
