The procurement falls under the services category, specifically the hire of passenger transport vehicles with drivers, classified under CPV code 60170000. The procedure follows an open procurement method, with the award having been announced on 24th April 2025. The contract period is set from 28th August 2024 to 31st July 2028, with delivery expected across multiple UK regions including the North East, North West, and London, among others.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in passenger transport services with a capacity for large-scale, long-term commitments.
