Taxi Licensing Plates

Purpose
City of Wolverhampton Council (the Authority)
wishes to appoint a Provider for the provision of the vehicle
identification plates and ancillary equipment for private hire and
hackney carriage vehicles licenced by the Authority. Consequences
of the Deregulation Act 2015 have caused a significant increase in
the number of private hire vehicles being licenced by the Authority
and the subsequent requirement for much greater volumes of licence
plates.
The Authority has increased its vehicle fleet by over 1700% since
2015 therefore it is reasonable to estimate that the Authority
shall plate over 25,000 vehicles per year throughout the duration
of this contract, however volumes are not guaranteed, and volumes
could go up or down. The Authority aim to reduce livery costs based
on economies of scale. All pricing submitted by the successful
Provider shall remain fixed and firm for the duration of the
Contract, including any extensions.
