## Summary

The public procurement contract concerns the provision of "Home to School Transport for children, young people, and adults (4-25 years)" by Dudley MBC. The industry category is services pertaining to the hire of passenger transport vehicles with a driver, classified under CPV code 60170000. The contract was awarded to multiple successful suppliers, with the buying organization aiming to meet statutory transport needs conveniently within the West Midlands region, United Kingdom. The contract is managed through a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS), which remains open until 30 June 2027. The procurement method employed is selective, particularly a call-off from this dynamic purchasing system. The contract period spans from 1 September 2024 to 30 November 2024, and the procurement process is currently at the award update stage as of 22 July 2025.

This tender represents significant business opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as the procurement process is especially accommodating to such entities. Transport companies with a wide range of vehicular capabilities—including cars, MPVs, minibuses, and larger accessible vehicles—are well-positioned to leverage this opportunity. Participation in the dynamic purchasing system until 2027 allows suppliers to potentially secure repeat business and build long-term partnerships with Dudley MBC. The collaborative engagement in offering transport services for educational purposes not only augments a company's portfolio but also strengthens community ties by contributing towards essential public services.
