In plain English
The Northern Ireland Housing Executive is looking for taxi services to transport homeless people from their local offices to temporary accommodation in two areas: Derry/Londonderry (West Area) and Coleraine (Causeway Area). You can bid for one or both areas.
What the buyer wants
• Provide taxi transport for homeless applicants from Housing Executive offices to temporary placement accommodation • Operate services in either the Derry/Londonderry area, the Coleraine area, or both • Follow the Housing Executive's standard conditions of contract and detailed service specification
Lots
- Lot 1 - Derry/Londonderry
- Lot 2 - Coleraine
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: Most independent taxi drivers or small operators will struggle because this is a fixed-price contract for a public body with strict compliance, insurance, and vetting requirements. You must hold a valid taxi license, carry appropriate insurance, pass enhanced background checks, and accept the Housing Executive's rigid terms. The estimated value is £200,000 but this covers both lots across two areas, so per-lot revenue may be modest and the service demands high.
Always check the tender documents.
