    Brief

    The Ernest Bold Centre currently operates an aging diesel minibus that is increasingly expensive to maintain and does not align with the council's environmental sustainability goals. The centre requires a replacement electric minibus to support its short break service, which provides transportation for service users from their homes to the facility. The Ernest Bold site has adequate infrastructure to support electric vehicle charging, with secure overnight parking available. Suppliers should note that this procurement seeks a modern, reliable electric minibus capable of passenger transport with competitive whole-life costs and zero-emission operation.
