Summary of the contracting process

The North Yorkshire Council is managing the procurement process for school transport services under contract SPFO066. This specific project involves transporting up to eight passengers from Camblesforth, Selby to The Forest School in the Knaresborough area, with services commencing in April 2026 and continuing until April 2028. This tender falls under the services category and involves limited competition procurement, below the threshold. The award stage has been completed as of 31 March 2026. The main delivery region is UKE2 in the United Kingdom, focusing on transport services. The contract's total gross value is £121,624.32, and it is signed with options for modifications available.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in transport services, particularly those that can offer reliable and efficient school transport solutions. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like Harrogate Private Hire Cars Ltd, the winning supplier, have successfully competed for this contract by offering expertise in private hire services. Businesses specialising in transportation with capabilities to operate in sub-central government regions such as North Yorkshire can leverage this contract to expand their market presence and demonstrate their service reliability in the educational sector. The involvement in such public sector projects not only provides assured revenue streams but also enhances the company's portfolio and credibility in the industry.
