Summary of the contracting process

Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport procured passenger transport services for the Exning to Stanton Community Primary School route, serving Stanton in Suffolk. The requirement covers transport associated with taking passengers to and from the school, rather than the supply of vehicles or general goods. It falls within the broad transport services category (CPV 60000000). The contracting organisation is Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport, based in Ipswich, and the named school route links Exning with Stanton Community Primary School. This is a local education transport requirement, relevant to operators providing scheduled school journeys, suitable vehicles and the staff needed to deliver reliable passenger services in Suffolk.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a mini-competition under the Dynamic Purchasing System for the supply of passenger transport services. Bids were due by 09:00 on 7 September 2026, with clarification questions due by 15:00 on 4 September 2026. The award was made on 7 September 2026 to Jueb ali t/a St Edmunds Cars for £19,204.59. The contract runs from 9 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. The awarded contract is recorded as active, and the tender is complete. The published process identifies the service category and route, but does not set out a separate evaluation formula or weighted award basis.

This award indicates a defined requirement for school passenger transport on a local Suffolk route, delivered through a Dynamic Purchasing System mini-competition. Suppliers considering similar future requirements would need to demonstrate dependable day-to-day school transport operations, suitable vehicles, competent drivers and the capacity to maintain a consistent service throughout the school year. Local knowledge of Exning, Stanton and the surrounding Suffolk area would support practical route planning and reliable performance. The award also shows that the buyer uses a structured DPS route for individual passenger transport requirements, so operators seeking comparable work would benefit from being able to participate in that purchasing arrangement and respond precisely to route-specific specifications.
