Award of Education Taxis and Minibuses Framework Agreement for Fife Council

About

Fife Council awarded a framework agreement to multiple suppliers, including Fife Wide Taxis LTD, JJ Taxis, David's Taxi, Murray's Taxis Glenrothes, Derek Steele, X Cabs, Village cabz, Pro Race Scotland T/A Edinburgh Group Transport, 365 Travel Ltd., Prompt Taxis, CT EXECUTIVE, and Glen Taxi, for the supply of transport services principally for the conveyance of children and young people to schools and other educational establishments.

The framework also covers replacement transport services where roadworks prevent a local bus service from serving its normal route, and other transport services for Fife Council, including the transport of school meals.

Contracts operated through this framework can generally be undertaken by taxis, private hire cars, and minibuses, including vehicles capable of carrying passengers in wheelchairs.

All journeys are organised, booked, and managed by Fife Council staff or Fife College staff, as Fife College can also use this framework.

Contracts are awarded using the direct purchase method described in the Invitation to Tender.
