Likely requirements

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

This is a transport and passenger services contract, not a trade contract like cleaning or construction. Most small builders, electricians or cleaners will be completely disqualified unless they operate a coach or minibus business with a current Operator's Licence and established passenger transport experience. The budget is fixed at £120,000 per annum, so you cannot profit unless your operating costs are very low.

How to bid

This is an open tender: any eligible business can respond directly to the buyer by the deadline, with no framework membership needed.
