## Summary

Bath and North East Somerset Council has completed the procurement process for a dynamic purchasing system aimed at providing Education, Social Care, and related passenger transport services. The procurement, classified under 'Non-scheduled passenger transport' (CPV: 60140000), and including 'Special-purpose road passenger-transport services' (CPV: 60130000) and 'Hire of passenger transport vehicles with driver' (CPV: 60170000), covers the South West region of the United Kingdom. The procurement value stands at £32,000,000, with the contract period starting from 1 January 2025 to 31 December 2028. The tender used an open procedure and interested parties had until 22 November 2024 to submit their proposals.

This contract provides significant opportunities for business growth, particularly for SMEs and VCSEs that offer passenger transport services. Companies specialising in non-scheduled and special-purpose transport can benefit from participating in this dynamic purchasing system. The council's emphasis on inclusive procurement suggests that businesses of various scales and capabilities stand a good chance of securing a portion of the contract, promoting healthy competition in the sector and enabling market entry for smaller and specialised transport providers.
