Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process was managed by Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport for the project titled “QBE020 09:00 2025-08-18 Lakenheath, Suffolk to West Suffolk College, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk - AWARD”. The contract focused on the transport services sector, excluding waste transport, under the industry category with the CPV code 60000000. The procurement stage is marked as complete, having reached the award phase with Suffolk-based All Day Cars named as the supplier. The contract covers services from 1st September 2025 to 31st July 2028. The mini-competition against a Dynamic Purchasing System for passenger transport services had a submission deadline on 18th August 2025, preceded by a clarification period ending on 12th August 2025.

This tender creates ample opportunities for businesses engaged in transport services, specifically those adept in passenger transport provisions. As the opportunity was structured around a mini-competition, it offers an accessible entry point for businesses accustomed to navigating Dynamic Purchasing Systems. Companies familiar with the logistics and operational dynamics of providing transport solutions across the United Kingdom, particularly in regions like Suffolk, would find opportunities to leverage their expertise, potentially leading to business expansion or market presence enhancement. Although not directly targeted at SMEs or VCSEs, the predictable revenue stream over three years could benefit larger-sized transport service providers.
