Summary of the contracting process

Telford and Wrekin Council, located in Telford, United Kingdom, is the buying organisation for the "All Age Passenger Transport DPS" tender. This public procurement opportunity focuses on transport services, excluding waste transport, in the West Midlands area. The procurement aims to establish a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to facilitate various transport needs including home to school transport, special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), and social care, requiring diverse vehicle types. The procurement process is currently in the Tender Update stage with an amendment extending a key submission deadline to 23 February 2029. The procurement method is a selective, restricted procedure covered by the Government Procurement Agreement (GPA).

This procurement process presents lucrative opportunities for businesses specializing in transportation services, particularly those capable of providing buses, taxis, specially adapted vehicles, and supported transport. Given the inclusivity of the scope, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are particularly well-positioned to compete, as the DPS approach supports diverse suppliers and encourages recurring engagements. With contracts such as the Telford & Wrekin Council Supported Bus Network Tender 2025 and active call-offs with suppliers like 24x7 Shropshire Limited, A-Star Transport Midlands LTD, Ezy Carz, and Arriva Midlands North Limited, there is potential for sustained collaboration and business growth within the public sector.
