What is being bought
Nottinghamshire County Council are seeking tenders for a single stage open tender procedure, to procure a closed framework for Ad-Hoc Transport Services to meet the needs of Nottinghamshire residents.
Ad-Hoc Transport is defined as short-term or emergency transport for single journeys or repeated journeys lasting generally not more than 6 weeks which can be cancelled at any time.
Transport is required for a variety of users including vulnerable adults and young people, those with special needs, disabilities and/or social care/health requirements, council staff and members. The transport operates generally, but not exclusively, within Nottinghamshire, and may extend to other locations within the UK.
