Large Vehicle Passenger Transport Services (BB4)

Leicestershire County Council ("the Council") provides transport for a variety of service users including those accessing Children and Young People's and Adult Social Care services. Their specific needs are co-ordinated by our in-house Transport Operations (TO) Service based at County Hall in Leicestershire.

The Council is conducting the procurement of establishing a Dynamic Purchasing (DPS) System in accordance with the requirements of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI 2015/102) (PCR 2015, Reg 34) for the purpose of procuring Mainstream, SEN and Social Care Transport Services.

The intention of the DPS is to appoint suitable Operators of Minibus, Bus and Coach type vehicles to whom LCC will let individual Contracts following a 'further competition'; specifically:

• The provision of both a driver and vehicle.

• The operation of Minibuses, Buses and Coaches of various seating capacities.

• The operation of Minibuses, Buses and Coaches of various configurations and specifications including wheelchair accessible vehicles.

• The carriage of a variety of service users including children, vulnerable adults and those with Special Educational Needs (SEN).

• The operation of Minibus, Bus and Coach services in and around the County of Leicestershire and City of Leicester.

• The operation of Minibus, Bus and Coach services with or without an escort, as required for individual services.
