## Summary

Birmingham City Council has completed a public procurement process for Children's Travel Services under the reference CUTDA-450. This contract has been directly awarded to Halo Transfers Ltd, in line with a selective procurement method, by utilising a framework agreement. The contract, valued at £88,798.40, covers the provision of small motor vehicles for passenger transport, specifically targeting the West Midlands region in the United Kingdom. It falls under the industry category of services, focusing on transport services and motor vehicles. The award was made active on 1st September 2025, following the end of the tender period on 28th August 2025, with the service set to commence from 1st September 2025 until 31st July 2027.

This procurement presents considerable growth opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in transport services, especially those with expertise in providing vehicles for the transportation of persons. Although the contract has been awarded to Halo Transfers Ltd, businesses that can strategically position themselves in similar frameworks with Birmingham City Council may find significant opportunities for future collaboration. Being an area of interest, SMEs in the West Midlands poised to provide efficient motor vehicles for passenger transport could find themselves well-suited for upcoming tenders, potentially enabling them to expand their service offerings and customer base.
