## Summary

Fife Council has completed the procurement process for the "TT0013 - Invitation to Tender for Social Work and Housing Transport Framework" under an open procedure. The tender aims to establish a framework agreement for the provision of various transport services for Social Work and Housing Services passengers within the Fife region, covering categories such as taxis, private hire cars, and minibuses, including vehicles capable of carrying wheelchair users. The procurement stage is now at the award stage, having been completed as of 13 February 2025, with contracts signed on 11 July 2023. The framework includes several lots across different licensing zones in Fife, with an anticipated contract duration of up to 720 days, extendable by up to 24 months.

This tender presents significant opportunities for local transport service providers, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), to secure contracts with Fife Council.

Winning a place on the framework can offer consistent work, as services are required across various zones and for multiple service types, fostering business growth within the local economy. The procurement emphasizes quality in addition to price, ensuring that businesses focusing on exceptional service delivery have an advantageous position.
