    Brief

    Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council (BMBC) is seeking providers for home-to-school and home-to-college passenger transport services through its Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS 96182). The council has a statutory duty to arrange travel for eligible children, including both Special Educational Needs (SEN) and non-SEN pupils, to enable access to education. This is an award notice for ad-hoc call-offs from the original DPS framework. Route locations are not disclosed to protect pupil privacy. Initial contracts are for the academic year, with potential extensions based on council requirements. The total contract value covers all routes for the academic year period. Suppliers should note that separate award notices will be issued for the yearly summer refresh and additional ad-hoc routes. Interested providers can register on the DPS to bid on available routes.
