The procurement was classified under the goods category and involved an open procedure. The tender period concluded on 20th June 2019, with an overall contract value of £90,000. The contract commencement is set for 1st October 2019 and will extend until 30th September 2022. This process took place at the Council's offices located at Plough Lane, Hereford, within the West Midlands region of the United Kingdom. Opportunities for business growth in this procurement relate primarily to software companies specialising in transport management systems or those involved in technical planning and consultancy. Businesses that provide innovative scheduling software, consultancy services, or those with experience in industry-specific software packages would find this tender particularly well-suited to their capabilities. The active inclusion of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) further indicates a supportive environment for diverse business participation in the project. ## Notice Herefordshire Council provide home to school and college transport to approximately 4,500 clients across 120 establishments throughout Herefordshire and neighboring Counties. The service is coordinated by the Council's Passenger Transport team based at Plough Lane, Hereford which includes public bus services (not in scope of this requirement), school and college transport, and special transport (SEN). The Passenger Transport team consists of 15 members of staff. The current database system in use for managing the service is scheduled to be withdrawn and so tenders are being invited for a replacement system that provides a software solution specifically designed for school, college, and SEN transport.
