NHS trusts and integrated care boards commission non-emergency patient transport. Combined authorities and transport authorities procure supported bus networks.
Right now the most active buyers publishing in this category on Daily Tenders are East Sussex County Council, NHS Tayside, Falkirk Council, Comhairle nan Eilean Siar, Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council and East Lothian Council.
Operator licensing — PSV or goods vehicle as applicable — plus Section 19 or 22 permits for community transport. Enhanced DBS for drivers and passenger assistants carrying children or vulnerable adults, safeguarding training, and often a specific standard for passenger assistants. Councils commonly require vehicle age limits and CCTV.
School transport is usually let as large route-based tenders with dozens or hundreds of individual routes, each biddable separately — which suits small operators who can take a handful of routes rather than the whole contract. Patient transport goes out as large multi-year contracts. Dynamic purchasing systems are widely used so new operators can join mid-term.
Yes — this is one of the most SME-accessible categories in public procurement. Route-based tenders let you bid only the routes you can service, and dynamic purchasing systems accept applications throughout their life rather than only at launch.
Missing or lapsed operator licensing, insufficient DBS coverage for the passenger group, and vehicles outside the specified age or accessibility standard. These are pass/fail checks, so they end a bid before quality is even read.
