Tender: Framework Agreement for Transport of Children, Young People and Adults (9–16 Passenger Vehicles) — Aug 2026 to Jul 2028

About

The Contracting Authority is seeking suppliers for a ranked framework agreement to provide transportation for children, young people and adults using 9–16 passenger seat vehicles. The procurement follows an open tender procedure under the Procurement Act 2023 and a notice has been published on the Find a Tender Service; a full scope of requirements is set out in Appendix A. The authority intends the framework to run from August 2026 to July 2028 with the option to extend by two further one‑year periods (subject to contract review and budget availability). The Contracting Authority will appoint suppliers who can clearly demonstrate the ability to meet the requirements and who submit the most advantageous tenders, and reserves the right to modify or amend the contract if local government reorganisation affects the area or scope of coverage.
