Southampton City Council is seeking suppliers for a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to provide home-to-school transport across the city of Southampton. The DPS covers a range of vehicle services including up to 4-seat vehicles, 5–8-seat vehicles and 9-seat and over vehicles, each supplied with a driver.

This could be valuable for transport operators able to provide drivers and vehicles in the specified seat categories across Southampton. Key considerations include ensuring fleet availability across all required seat sizes and managing city-wide logistics and scheduling to meet demand.
