## Summary

The Lancashire County Council is seeking tenders for the "CORP - Integrated Transport Services Framework 1," aimed at bolstering transport services, including Special Educational Needs (SEN) Mainstream Home To School Taxi Services, Community Transport, and Alternative and Complementary Education and Residential Services (ACERS) within Lancashire. This procurement initiative, conducted through an open procedure, has a total value of £36,000,000 and is currently in the award stage, with the contract period running from 1 July 2018 to 30 June 2019. The initial tender period closed on 11 August 2015, and a list of successful suppliers can be located via the online link provided by the council.

This framework agreement creates significant opportunities for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) specialised in transport services. Businesses that provide vehicles meeting public service legislation requirements, as well as those familiar with tendering processes for public sector contracts, would be well-positioned to benefit from this opportunity. Given the community-based nature of these services, firms experienced in handling transport for vulnerable groups may also find this tender particularly suited to their capabilities.
