Requirements
What could rule a small business out: This is a transport/taxi contract, not a construction or trade services opportunity. Most small tradespeople will be disqualified unless they are already a licensed taxi or coach operator. The estimated value is not disclosed, making it difficult to assess whether the contract is worth bidding for.
Always check the tender documents.
