Summary of the contracting process

The University of York has completed a tender process for bus services related to the transportation of students from Hull to the York campus during the Autumn 2021/22 term. The procurement, labelled as 'limited', was initiated due to extreme urgency and unexpected requirements, leading to a direct award procedure without prior publication. The final contract, valued at £33,150 and signed on 22 September 2021, was awarded to East Yorkshire Motor Services Limited, following a careful selection of available providers given the short notice of the requirement. This procurement falls within the services industry, specifically under the CPV classification for the hire of buses and coaches with drivers, and was situated in the United Kingdom.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the transport sector, particularly those specialising in student transport or providing coach and bus services.
