## Summary

Fife Council commissioned a modification to its West Fife Taxibus service pilot. The work extends the pilot’s operating hours so that they align with the operating hours already used in North Fife. This is a passenger transport service, specifically demand-responsive or taxibus provision, classified under CPV 60140000. Delivery is in West Fife. The requirement is for a service operator able to provide the extended GoFlexi Taxibus pilot service in that area. Fife Council is the buying organisation. The modification concerns one service package and continues an existing arrangement rather than creating a separate transport network or infrastructure project. The stated purpose is to support a longer trial period for the West Fife pilot following recommendations from a consultant’s bus review.

This procurement has been awarded to Moffat & Williamson Ltd, an SME, through a modification to the existing Taxibus contract. The contract was signed on 7 June 2023 and is active. The modification extends the contract for 480 days, with a contract value of £3,222,339. The stated reason is unforeseen circumstances arising from recommendations in a 2025 Consultant’s Bus Review Report, made two years after the initial contract began. The modification extends the West Fife GoFlexi Taxibus pilot for a longer trial period and aligns its operating hours with North Fife. The award notice describes one service package. No separate competitive evaluation criteria are recorded for this modification.

For suppliers that did not win, this award demonstrates established demand from Fife Council for managed, local passenger transport delivered through a taxibus or demand-responsive service. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need the operational capability to run a passenger service in West Fife, extend or coordinate operating hours across neighbouring service areas, and sustain delivery through a prolonged pilot or trial period. The incumbent is an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a specialist transport business rather than only a large national operator. Relevant experience would include managing flexible bus operations, maintaining reliable day-to-day coverage, and responding to service reviews that lead to changes in operating arrangements.
