Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process managed by The North Yorkshire Council concerned the provision of school transport services, specifically for contract R0956. This contract involved transporting students from Great Broughton to Hambleton & Richmondshire PRS, offering four seats from January to July 2026. Classified under services for transportation, this award utilised a limited competition procurement method due to being below threshold. Covering the region of UKE22 in the United Kingdom, the contract commenced on 12th January 2026, with Pebbles Cars Ltd being recognised as the supplier. The process was completed, and the contract award remains active, with renewal options extending potentially up to July 2028.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in transport services. With Pebbles Cars Ltd awarded the contract, other similar enterprises within the region might consider competing in future tenders for local government transport services. Engaging with The North Yorkshire Council could facilitate valuable connections within the public sector, particularly for businesses looking to grow their profile in school transport solutions and expand their operational outreach within sub-central government activities.
