## Summary

Oxfordshire County Council has completed the procurement process for the "Supported Transport Dynamic Purchasing Solution (DPS) 2023," which primarily covers the hire of passenger transport vehicles with drivers within Oxfordshire and its neighbouring areas. This service encompasses mainstream home to school transport, Special Education Needs and Disabilities (SEND) transport, and social care transport. The procurement followed a selective method via a restricted procedure and had a tender period that concluded on 31st December 2025. The entire process is now in the award stage, and the contract will be active from 1st January 2026 to 31st March 2026. The contract, valued at £6,862,915.25, reflects a significant investment in local transport services. 

This procurement opportunity presents substantial business growth prospects, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in transport services. Companies that can offer efficient and reliable passenger transport services with experienced drivers could find the DPS contractual framework advantageous, given the ongoing need for services within and occasionally beyond the Oxfordshire boundary. Engaging with this DPS allows businesses to consistently compete for transport service tenders, thus securing a stable stream of potential contracts and helping in expanding their operations within the public sector.
