Summary of the contracting process

The North Yorkshire Council has awarded a contract for school transport services, specifically for the Selby area covering Whitley to The Snaith School with a capacity of four seats. The procurement process was conducted under a limited method due to its below-threshold nature, allowing for limited competition. This contract has been awarded to 24 X 7 Ltd, a large-scale supplier in North Yorkshire. The award was made on 29th May 2026, with the contract period set to run from 8th September 2026 to 26th March 2027, with potential renewals of up to two additional years. The contract focuses on transport services within the public services category, primarily operating in the UKE2 region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the provision of specialised transport services, particularly those with experience in school transportation. Companies that can offer reliable and safe transport solutions, while maintaining the ability to scale services as needed, are well-positioned to capitalise on such contracts. Additionally, organisations with a strong regional presence in the Yorkshire area could benefit from building relationships with local councils like The North Yorkshire Council to secure future contracts. The structured procurement process outlined in this tender also highlights the council's commitment to ensuring fair competition and delivering quality public services.
