Summary of the contracting process

The North Yorkshire Council has successfully completed a procurement process for the provision of school transport services under the contract title "R0970 - School Transport - Request for Quotation - Hambleton - 4 seats." This procurement falls under the services category and was specifically carried out for transport needs from Catterick Garrison to Thirsk Children's Centre between May and July 2026. The contracting process was managed through a limited competition method, with the procurement stage officially concluding in June 2026. The procurement took place in the UKE2 region of the United Kingdom, and the contract, which allows modifications, was signed on 18th May 2026 for an initial period ending July 2026, with potential extensions up to 2028.

This procurement offers significant potential for business growth, particularly for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the transport services industry. With a gross contract value of £57,456, businesses specializing in personalised transport services stand to benefit greatly from such opportunities. The contract was awarded to PRIME PRIVATE HIRE, a company that fits well within the SME category, suggesting that businesses of similar scale and expertise could be competitive in such procurement processes. The favourable conditions, including options for renewal and modifications, make contracts of this nature attractive for businesses looking to establish a long-term governmental association and expand their services in the public sector.
