The purpose of this invitation to tender is to establish a Framework Agreement for the supply of transport services principally for the conveyance of children and young people to schools and other educational establishments (these requirements may also include transport to and from out of school clubs and transport to training) for all of Fife. The Framework may also be used to provide replacement transport services where roadworks prevent a local bus service from serving its normal route and could be used for the provision of other transport services for Fife Council, for example the delivery of school meals.
Contracts operated through this Framework can generally be undertaken by taxis, private hire cars and minibuses (with up to 22 passenger seats). There is a requirement for some vehicles to be capable of carrying passengers in wheelchairs (Wheelchair Accessible Vehicles (WAV)).
PLEASE NOTE that 2A.18 of the SPD requires the list of Lots applied for. This should be done in the separate Pricing Schedule document.
