Summary of the contracting process

The Borough Council of Bolton has completed the procurement process for the contract titled "TC074 - School Swimming Transport for Primary Schools". This project falls within the services industry category and aims to provide school transport services for swimming lessons across primary schools in the Metropolitan Borough of Bolton. The procurement was conducted via an open procedure and took place between the initiation date of July 4, 2022, with the contract running until July 3, 2024. The tender period concluded on March 11, 2022, and the contract is valued at £190,000.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community sector enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in passenger transport services, particularly those capable of handling larger transport needs (a minimum of 40 seated passengers). Companies involved in the transport of school children, including those offering specialised transport vehicles and services, are well-suited to compete in this framework, especially considering that the contracting authority is looking to appoint both a primary and a reserve contractor for ongoing work.
