Coverage: 53 active published awards; 12 bid reports (which may be per lot). Supplier values exclude multi-supplier awards, frameworks and DPS, and use GBP only. They are published award values, not payments. Published-to-award variance compares single-lot, single-award, single-supplier GBP procedures with explicitly non-framework/non-DPS status; increases remain in the average. Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

What is being bought
The Contracting Authority is looking to establish a ranked framework of Service Providers that are able to provide transport for Children, Young People and Adults identified by the Council. A full scope of the Contracting Authority's requirements can be found in Appendix A - Specification. The Contracting Authority wishes to appoint Suppliers who can clearly demonstrate the ability to meet our requirements and who offers the most advantageous tender. It is anticipated that the framework term will be from August 2026 to July 2028, with the option to extend incrementally for a period of 1+1 years (subject to contract review and budget availability).
