## Summary

The Birmingham City Council has concluded a public procurement process titled "Children's Travel Services," under the procurement ID LINDS-450. This initiative involves the provision of motor vehicles and transport services, focusing predominantly on the transport of children to Lindsworth School's Main Site. Classified under the CPV code 34115200, the procurement caters to the transport of fewer than ten persons, located in the West Midlands, United Kingdom. The process involved a selective procurement method, specifically a call-off from an existing framework agreement, with the award status completed as of 15 January 2026. The contract period spans from 3 November 2025 to 31 July 2027, with a value of £90,801.

This tender opens up opportunities for businesses operating in the transport services industry, particularly those specialising in smaller passenger vehicles. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs), such as Solihull Cars Ltd, which secured the contract, are well-positioned to participate, especially companies capable of providing consistent and reliable transport services for educational institutions. The framework agreement calls for a streamlined procurement process, offering an advantageous platform for SMEs to provide essential services and potentially expand their business footprint within the public sector.
