    Brief

    Renfrewshire Council has established a framework agreement with qualified service providers to deliver transport services for vulnerable and additional support needs populations. The framework covers bus, taxi, and private hire car services for children and adults with additional support needs (ASN), as well as council tenants and other service users. Services will transport users between their homes and destinations such as schools, day care centres, leisure facilities, and temporary accommodation. The framework comprises four separate lots: ASN Buses (Lot 1), ASN Taxis (Lot 2), Ad-hoc Buses (Lot 3), and Ad-hoc Taxis (Lot 4). Service providers can bid for any combination of lots suited to their business structure. The framework commenced on 17 June 2026 and will remain active for its full duration, with no guaranteed minimum spend. Call-off contracts may require escort services where specified by the council. While primarily used by Children's Services, the framework is available to all Renfrewshire Council services including the Health and Social Care Partnership. Mainstream school transport continues to be procured separately through SPT.
