About

Lancashire County Council is seeking suppliers for the provision of local bus services and home-to-school transport across Lancashire and into adjoining local authority areas, with services arranged and funded by the council. The authority intends to operate a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) split into two categories: Category One for Local Bus Services and Category Two for School Bus Services. Suppliers appointed to the DPS must hold the required PSV operator licences and meet minimum quality standards covering insurance, vehicles, contract standards, driver training, appropriate clearance and customer care. Services are developed by the Public and Integrated Transport Team and are let as individual contracts through mini-competitions among appointed suppliers. Further information and supporting documents are available on the Lancashire County Council tenders web page at www.lancashire.gov.uk/business/tenders-and-procurement/tenders/.
