Description

Cambridgeshire County Council's Passenger Transport Service are exploring interest in the 'One Supplier, One School' Model. This model would look at a single supplier supplying home to school transport to a single school within Cambridgeshire. In supplier engagement meetings, we have previously referred to this as 'whole school model'. The Council is looking to conduct a series of engagements with the Market on this model and if this could work for the Council, Schools, and students. This is the second engagement questionnaire to be issued. To apply please - https://forms.office.com/e/3aSd7sKNbu The Council will be engaging the market over the following twelve (12) months possibly longer as we investigate and develop our approach to this way of delivering our services. Opportunities coming out of this engagement, the Council will notify all the Market when we are ready to procure such services.
