## Summary

Lancashire County Council has completed a procurement process to award contracts for the provision of passenger transport services under a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS). The awarded contracts are for the period from 1 April 2024 to 30 June 2024, with services to be delivered in the North West region of the United Kingdom. The procurement was focused on the hire of passenger transport vehicles with drivers, and the total value of the contracts awarded is nominally set at £1 GBP. Key dates in the procurement process included the end of the tender period on 31 March 2024, the start of the contract period on 1 April 2024, and the publication of the award notice on 5 August 2024.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses in the passenger transport industry, particularly those experienced in providing transport services with drivers. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, as the council has highlighted suitability for these types of businesses. The long-term contract period until 31 December 2029 offers stability and significant growth potential for the successful suppliers. Businesses looking to establish or expand their foothold in the North West region's transport sector would find this opportunity particularly attractive.
