Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the transport services contract titled "SP06005B/HAS TRANSPORT/REQUEST FOR QUOTATION/NORTHALLERTON AREA/4 SEATS" has been completed, with The North Yorkshire Council as the buying organisation. Situated in Northallerton, United Kingdom, this tender was part of the sub-central government public authority segment. It involved the provision of school transport services from Scarborough to Friarage Community Academy, catering for four seats from January 2026 to July 2026. The procurement method employed was limited competition, reflecting a below-threshold requirement, and the award for this contract was signed on 13 January 2026, with an active period extending until 31 July 2027 and potential renewal options.

This tender represents a business growth opportunity in the services category, specifically within transport services excluding waste transport, with its geographic focus on the Yorkshire and Humber region. The contract is valued at GBP 69,000, offering large-scale service providers like Nippy Taxis Ltd, which has been awarded this contract, a chance to expand their operations in a key educational transport sector. Businesses with expertise in reliable and efficient passenger transport would be well-positioned to participate in similar procurements, enhancing their market presence while potentially securing ongoing contracts under the council's renewal mechanisms.
