Description

The Council requires the provision of Transport Services for young people between home and school (the "Services"). The Supplier will be expected to provide the Services for the Council, with the aims of good quality, safety, value for money and sustainability. The Councils also aim to avoid disruption in supply.
The services includes:
The provision of:
- Suitable vehicles and drivers.
- Passenger assistants, and their associated transport arrangements.
- Transport for children and young people with Special Education Needs and Disabilities (SEND) to access an educational setting and/or respite care. SEND include autism, learning difficulties, challenging behaviour and complex physical or medical needs.
The Council's objectives are to secure services that are safe, reliable, high quality, sustainable and deliver value for money, whilst minimising disruption to service users and their families.
The procurement consists of two lots. Lot 1: Alt Bridge and Lot 2: Knowsley Central.
To aid transparency:
Soft Market Testing: The reason no market engagement has been undertaken is due to the urgency of the requirements.
Reduced Tendering Period: The Council has deemed a state of urgency surrounding these contracts. These contracts must be awarded and start on 19 January following completion of the required constitutional governance processes, the standard tendering period would not enable these constitutional requirements to be observed.
