About
Perth & Kinross Council awarded transport contracts operated by public service vehicles to Ian F Smith & Partners t/a Smith & Sons, Thomas A Sweeney & Kathleen A Sweeney t/a Sweeneys Garage, and Rowan Travel under its Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS).
The awards cover the period 01/04/18 to 30/06/18, with a total contract value of £535,486.02.
***Insight: This quarterly award notice reflects the council's use of a DPS to procure public service vehicle transport contracts, a mechanism that allows for multiple suppliers and ongoing competition.
The involvement of three separate suppliers suggests the contracts are divided into smaller lots or routes, typical for local transport services.
