Summary of the contracting process

This public procurement contract pertains to the provision of Children's Travel Services, focusing on the deployment of a Wheelchair Accessible Minibus (Medium) to Mayfield School, Wheeler Street Site. Birmingham City Council, by leveraging its 2023 Framework Agreement, championed this initiative. The contract falls under the 'Motor vehicles for the transport of fewer than 10 persons' industry category and is geographically located in the West Midlands, United Kingdom. The procurement has progressed to the award stage, with a contract value of £64,843.20. It was awarded to 247 Cars Willenhall Ltd on 27th March 2025, and the contractual period extends from 28th March 2025 to 31st July 2027. Conducted via a selective procurement method, the process was a call-off from a framework agreement.

This tender offers promising business growth opportunities, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with capabilities in transport services. Given its specific requirements, businesses specialising in accessible and specialised transport solutions would be well-suited to compete. The procurement process allows for targeted competition among pre-selected suppliers, making it beneficial for companies that have previously secured a position within the relevant framework agreements. Such arrangements streamline opportunities for qualified entities by reducing the competition pool and ensuring adherence to the buyer's standards, as established by Birmingham City Council's framework criteria.
