Description

On 18 August 2023 the Authority established a dynamic purchasing system (DPS) for SEN, social care and social inclusion passenger transport services which includes a requirement for passenger assistants. This was originally advertised in Contracts Finder (7 July 2023) and Find a Tender Service (7 July 2023) with a closing date of 7 August 2023 to allow for the evaluation of initial expressions of interest.

This advert is published to update the closing date to 17 August 2028 which is the end of the initial term of the DPS. Interested suppliers are invited to submit an application to join the DPS at any time up to 17 August 2028 by completing the application documents available on the Authority's etendering system ProContract https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=385f8334-d91b-ee11-8123-005056b64545
