Summary of the contracting process

Cambridgeshire County Council has initiated a public procurement process for the supply of Local Bus Services covering 43 routes across the East of England. The tender, valued at £6,000,000, falls under the non-scheduled passenger transport category and is classified as an open procurement method. The tender period ended on 26th February 2021, and the contract period commenced on 1st April 2021, concluding on 1st April 2022. The authority's contact details are available for any inquiries.

This procurement presents an excellent opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community sector enterprises (VCSEs) to engage in local transport services. Businesses equipped with experience in passenger transport, including those offering vehicle hire and dedicated bus services, would be particularly well-suited to compete. As the council seeks reliable and efficient service providers, this tender could lead to significant growth for participating companies through long-term contracts within the local public transport sector.
