NineSquared’s public transport expertise was engaged to provide an international bidder for a major bus company with operational due diligence relating both the company’s operations in several States in Australia but also to provide an understanding of the statutory and operational environment for public transport service delivery in Australia.  

Drawing on our experience in public passenger transport developed over the past 25 years, we provided a report detailing the competitive landscape for public transport services, regulatory frameworks across Australia and a strategic overview of bidding opportunities. We also provide operational reviews of the vendor due diligence reports and information memorandum advising on areas where there were potential risks and possible opportunities for our client to consider. Our comprehensive analysis was undertaken within relatively short timeframes and provided to banks and other financiers to provide comfort about the risks and opportunities associated with the transaction.
