This selective procurement process will be conducted as a call-off from a framework agreement, targeting the transport services industry under CPV code 60000000. The delivery location is specified as England, United Kingdom. The procurement has initiated its tender stage, with the tender period concluding on 18th June 2026. The contract period spans from 24th August 2026 to 22nd July 2027, involving a total contract value of £22,288.5 GBP.

This tender provides a growth opportunity for businesses specialising in transport services, particularly those accustomed to managing contracts within the educational sector.
