Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "2025/26 SEN HTS Transport (Courthouse Green)" contract was conducted by Coventry City Council, a sub-central government public authority based in Coventry, United Kingdom. The tender, identified as COV-23595, focused on providing home-to-school taxi services during the 2025/26 academic year. This selective procurement, which was awarded under an existing framework, falls under the services category of the transport industry. The contract has been signed and is active from 2nd September 2025 until 31st July 2026. Key dates include the contract signing on 14th August 2025, and it is valued at £34,587 gross. The delivery location for services is within the West Midlands region (UKG33) of the UK.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the transport sector, particularly those specialising in taxi services, as it demonstrates the potential for business growth through government contracts. Businesses that can provide reliable and efficient transportation solutions, especially to meet the needs of school transport, will find this framework agreement advantageous. Given the tender's competitive nature, SMEs with the capability to serve the West Midlands region effectively are well-suited to pursue similar contracts in the future. The awarding of this contract to JUST A RIDE LTD, an SME, underscores the possibilities for other businesses of similar scale to expand their operations through public sector engagements.
