Summary of the contracting process

Hull City Council has recently completed a public procurement process for the "Further Competition - Taxi & Small Bus Service - Call off" contract, valued at £455,880 GBP. This procurement falls under the services category, specifically taxi services (CPV code: 60120000). The contract involves the transportation of pupils and passenger assistants across various locations, including Bransholme, North, East, and West Hull, as well as Out of Town areas. The process employed a selective procurement method under a restricted procedure. The initial tender ended on 15th April 2025, and the subsequent contract runs from 2nd June 2025 to 1st June 2027. The award stage was finalized on 4th June 2025, with Hull Cars 82 and NP Travel LTD appointed as the main suppliers.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for growth, particularly for businesses capable of providing reliable, short-notice transportation services. While the contract notably favours larger scale operations, small and medium enterprises remain eligible to compete, given the procurement's suitability scope. Businesses that specialize in flexible transport solutions within the UK and can manage logistics efficiently would be well-placed to compete in similar future tenders. With the Hull City Council as a well-established contracting authority, participating can enhance visibility and credibility in the regional transport sector.
