Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Warwickshire County Council procured passenger transport services by taxi or private hire car, covering individual transport routes in the West Midlands. The requirement is for road passenger transport rather than vehicle supply: suppliers provide journeys on routes arranged by the council. The service is intended to meet the council’s passenger transport needs, with separate routes awarded through its purchasing arrangement. The stated work covers services in the West Midlands; the council is based in Warwick. This is a service requirement and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses.

The procurement is complete and contracts have been awarded to various suppliers for individual routes through a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, using a selective process. The reported award value is £27,649,291.45. The award date is 23 February 2029, and the stated contract period runs from 24 to 25 February 2029. The tender submission deadline was 23 February 2029. No evaluation criteria or route-by-route award values are stated in the available procurement details. The listed award is active. The overall figure relates to the procurement; separate route awards should not be inferred from it.

For suppliers of taxi and private hire transport, this award demonstrates Warwickshire County Council’s demand for passenger journeys arranged as individual routes through a dynamic purchasing system. Small and medium-sized businesses were considered suitable, so the requirement is not limited to large operators. A credible competitor would need to be able to provide taxi or private hire car journeys for the routes required and operate in the West Midlands. The award identifies the service type, buyer and purchasing route that matter for suppliers assessing similar council requirements. The source details do not describe specific vehicle standards, driver qualifications, insurance levels or service capacity, so these cannot be treated as confirmed requirements.
