Summary of the contracting process

The Strathclyde Partnership for Transport (SPT), based in Glasgow, has completed the award stage of its contracting process for the period from 1st January to 31st March 2026. The procurement involved a series of awards from SPT's Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) focusing on non-scheduled passenger transport services. The location of services is within the UK (UKM region). This procurement followed a selective method, specifically a restricted procedure, and was governed by the EU Directive 2014/24/EU. The contract was signed on 27th March 2026, and the awards are now active.

This tender provides substantial business growth opportunities for companies specialising in non-scheduled passenger transport services. The contract's criteria emphasises a 90/10 price/quality evaluation split, which could appeal particularly to businesses that can offer competitive pricing while maintaining quality standards in vehicle presentation and contingency planning. With a total contract value of £5,521,265, companies that are scalable and capable of providing high-quality service in the transport sector would be well-suited to compete for such opportunities. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and larger transport firms, particularly those experienced in handling varied transport needs within a dynamic procurement structure, would benefit from participating in similar future tenders.
