## Summary

North Lanarkshire Council has conducted a procurement process for "Scheduled and Ad Hoc Taxi Services within North Lanarkshire". The project aims to establish a multi-lot framework involving multiple contractors to deliver these services over a proposed duration of four years, with a total maximum value of £3,200,000. Currently, the procurement is at the Award stage, and the contracts have generated considerable interest, having received four bids for one lot alone. The deadline for the tender submission was 5th October 2021.

This tender presents significant opportunities for growth, specifically for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the transport services industry. Companies that can offer a fleet of vehicles, particularly those capable of accommodating individuals with disabilities, would be well-positioned to compete. The requirements include timely service delivery and adaptability to various operational needs, which could be appealing for local taxi firms and transport providers seeking to expand their operations while also contributing to community benefit initiatives outlined by the Council, such as local training and job creation efforts.
