Summary of the contracting process

This procurement process, overseen by Birmingham City Council, involved the provision of "Children's Travel Services" under the "MPV (Small) to Waveley" project. This procurement falls within the industry category of transport services, specifically involving motor vehicles for the transport of fewer than 10 persons. The process was conducted through a selective procurement method as a call-off from a framework agreement. The procurement has reached the award stage, with an end date for the tender period of 8th October 2024. The contract period is set to commence on 10th October 2024 and conclude on 31st July 2026, serving the West Midlands region in the United Kingdom. The total contract value is £89,995.40.

This tender presents valuable business growth opportunities, specifically for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that can supply motor vehicles or provide transport services. The contract has been awarded to HALO TRANSFERS LTD, which indicates potential openings for businesses in the vehicle transport sector to engage with similar municipal projects or frameworks. Companies with expertise in transportation of fewer than 10 persons and operations in the West Midlands are particularly well-suited to pursue opportunities like these. Additionally, this framework agreement approach can offer businesses a streamlined pathway to secure contracts without engaging in full competitive tendering processes.
