About

The Council is seeking service providers to join a Dynamic Purchasing System to deliver home-to-school transport for children, young people and adults (ages 4–25). Required vehicles include cars, MPVs, minibuses, small and large accessible vehicles capable of transporting wheelchair users, and larger buses and coaches of all sizes. The Council has a statutory duty to meet the transport needs of individuals based on their assessment of need and when related eligibility criteria are met.

Insight

This could be ideal for transport operators with mixed fleets that include cars, MPVs, minibuses, wheelchair-capable accessible vehicles and larger buses/coaches. Key considerations: suppliers must be able to provide accessible vehicles for wheelchair users and meet the Council's statutory obligations tied to individual assessments and eligibility criteria, and be prepared to supply a range of vehicle sizes to serve ages 4–25.
