How do I win Transport services (excl. Waste transport) contracts in South East England?
SEND transport tenders are usually route-based DPS mini-competitions — join the DPS, then price routes realistically including driver/passenger-assistant costs and dead mileage. Safeguarding evidence (enhanced DBS, training records), vehicle accessibility and punctuality data win quality scores; councils are actively re-shoring routes from failed low-ball bids, so credible pricing now beats cheapest. The counties operate their own well-organised e-sourcing portals (Kent Business Portal, In-Tend and ProContract instances) — register on each county you can serve, because sub-threshold work is invited through them without appearing on national portals. County DPS lists for transport, care and construction admit new suppliers on a rolling basis.
