Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process conducted by The North Yorkshire Council involved a request for quotation titled "SP06044 - School Transport - Out of Area - 4 Seats," intended to manage school transport services from Brayton to Allerthorpe School. This contract, under the industry category of transport services, was awarded in June 2026 following a limited procurement process aimed at below-threshold competition. The procurement stage at the time of award was complete, with the active contract commencing on 11 May 2026 and expected to conclude on 31 July 2028, having provisions for extension. The buyer, The North Yorkshire Council, is located in Northallerton, UK, and the primary contact is Louise Wheatley.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for growth for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with a focus on transport services, specifically those that can manage school transport logistics efficiently. The procurement was executed through limited competition, suggesting suitability for businesses with the capability to provide specialised services in a niche market. Getaway Cars Ltd (York), an SME based in York, was the successful supplier. Companies with expertise in transport services, particularly those familiar with local geographical locales in North Yorkshire, stand to benefit significantly from such tenders. The opportunity also offers logistical businesses the chance to form long-term relationships with public authorities.
