In plain English

Dudley Council needs transport providers to join a flexible purchasing system (DPS) to move children, young people and adults aged 4-25 who are entitled to council-funded school or social transport. You'd supply various vehicles from cars and minibuses up to full coaches, including accessible vehicles for wheelchair users.

What the buyer wants

• Provide a range of vehicles (cars, MPVs, minibuses, accessible minibuses, large accessible vehicles, and coaches) to transport eligible children and adults • Meet statutory duty requirements and transport individuals based on council assessment of need and eligibility • Join a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to be called off as transport services are required

Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

You must have suitable vehicles and drivers with Enhanced DBS clearance; small sole traders with one car or unvetted drivers will not be eligible, and the ongoing compliance and insurance costs are substantial.

How to bid

This is a Dynamic Purchasing System: an open list of approved suppliers. You can apply to join at any time while it runs, and once accepted you can bid for the individual contracts the buyer runs through it.
