## Summary

Birmingham City Council has completed the procurement process for the provision of children's travel services, specifically requiring a saloon or estate car for Redall Hill Primary School. This direct award was executed through the council's Travel Services Framework Agreement, under the industry category of transport services for fewer than 10 persons. Notable aspects include its location in the West Midlands, United Kingdom, and the selective procurement method used. The procurement reached its award stage on 1st March 2025, with the contract period starting on 1st September 2025 and ending on 31st July 2027. The total contract value stands at £40,492.80.

This tender provides significant growth opportunities for small to medium enterprises (SMEs), with AFJ Limited being the successful supplier. The framework agreement approach can be advantageous for businesses in the transport sector, particularly those specialising in passenger vehicle services. Given the emphasis on SMEs, businesses with a similar scale could find competitive entrance into future iterations of the procurement. The lengthy contract period offers a stable revenue stream and potential for establishing a prolonged partnership with a major council authority.
