Summary of the contracting process

Birmingham City Council has completed the procurement process for the provision of "Children's Travel Services," specifically the acquisition of a wheelchair-accessible medium-sized minibus for Mayfield School in Wheeler Street. This tender falls within the transport services industry category, with CPV classifications relating to motor vehicles for transporting fewer than 10 and more than 10 persons. The procurement was executed through a call-off from a framework agreement, employing a selective procurement method. The contract, valued at £63,019.20, covers the West Midlands area and runs from 31st March 2025 to 31st July 2027. This tender stage has reached the award phase, with key dates reflecting the tender period's conclusion on 30th March 2025 and the award publication on 10th July 2025.

This contract opens opportunities for businesses that specialise in transport services, particularly those offering minibus solutions tailored for accessibility. Given the scale of the requirement and procurement method, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are well-suited to compete, as evidenced by the successful award to 247 Cars Willenhall Ltd, an SME. Such opportunities can facilitate business growth by enabling companies to establish or strengthen relationships with public sector entities like Birmingham City Council. Businesses with expertise in accessible transport solutions and capacity to serve educational institutions will find this tender particularly aligned to their strengths.
