## Summary

The Perth & Kinross Council has recently awarded a contract for an Unmet Taxi Demand Survey for the City of Perth and the Blairgowrie area. The contract falls under the services category and aims to assess taxi service needs, adhering to the requirements outlined in the Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982. The tender period commenced on 18 August 2017 and concluded on 9 March 2018, with the award valued at £8,600. The procurement process was initiated as a tender and has now moved into the award stage, finalising the selection of Vector Transport Consultancy as the successful supplier.

This contract presents valuable opportunities for research organisations, particularly those specialised in transport and taxi services. Companies experienced in conducting demand surveys within the transport sector, as well as those with a focus on service delivery in public transport analysis, would be particularly well-positioned to engage in similar tenders. With the requirement for such surveys taking place every three years, there is potential for businesses to establish ongoing relationships with local councils and expand their portfolio in public sector contracts.
