## Summary

The Redcar & Cleveland Borough Council has initiated a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for School, College & Centre Passenger Transport Services, aimed at providing transport for residents to various educational establishments across the North East of England. The tender, referenced as DN538664, was published on 11th May 2021, with the tender period closing on 14th June 2021. Contracts under this DPS are expected to commence on 5th July 2021 and will continue until 31st July 2026, with an estimated total contract value of £9,900,000. This procurement is classified under the service category of hiring passenger transport vehicles with drivers.

This tender offers significant opportunities for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) specialising in transport services. Businesses that provide logistical support, taxi services, or specialised transportation solutions would be particularly well-suited to compete. Given the nature of the service required, suppliers in the North East with local experience and the capacity to manage multiple transport routes for schools and colleges will have a competitive advantage in bidding for contracts under this system.
