Summary of the contracting process

NHS Forth Valley is seeking to provide local bus services, titled "Provision of Local Bus Services H1 H2 Forth Valley," within the services category. This procurement is focused on the geographical area of Stirling, UKM72, with an ongoing contract period from 27th March 2023 to 26th March 2027. This tender has transitioned from the award phase, initiated by Midland Bluebird Limited, a large-scale supplier. The contract, valued at £1,985,156 GBP, was signed on 7th March 2023 and amended to include a one-year extension. This procurement process follows the legal guidelines of EU Directive 2014/24/EU (CELEX: 32014L0024).

This tender presents growth opportunities for businesses specialising in transport services within the UK regions, particularly those with experience in public transportation infrastructure. Bus service operators capable of delivering reliable transport solutions linking Clackmannanshire communities to Forth Valley Royal Hospital could compete effectively in this procurement. Businesses should assess the applicability of TUPE regulations, as this could impact workforce management if a new service provider is appointed. Engaging in this tender could expand operational territory and enhance partnerships with public health organisations like NHS Forth Valley, fostering further opportunities in regional public transport network expansion.
