Coach and Mini-Bus Hire Framework
Framework ceiling £3,000,000 — the most the agreement may spend across all suppliers and call-offs, not a contract value
The procurement contact named on the official notice.
Glasgow City Council has published 6 Transport Services notices, about every 11 months. On that rhythm the next one is expected around March 2027.
70% of Glasgow City Council’s awards go to a supplier it has used before.
Which is the argument for getting on the list rather than winning this one. The incumbent is rarely the last winner — it is the roster. See the retention odds by category →
