Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport procured a passenger transport service for travel from Stowmarket to West Suffolk College in Bury St Edmunds. The requirement specifies a four-seat vehicle. It is a local transport service rather than a purchase of vehicles: the supplier is to provide transport for this route. The council is the buyer, and the stated delivery locations are Stowmarket and Bury St Edmunds.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to All Day Cars on 6 October 2026. The awarded contract value is £35,237.40. The contract period runs from 7 October 2026 to 31 July 2029. The council ran a mini-competition under its Dynamic Purchasing System for passenger transport services. Submissions were due by 09:00 on 6 October 2026, and clarification questions by 09:00 on 5 October 2026. The opportunity was marked as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

For suppliers assessing comparable future requirements from Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport, this award demonstrates demand for a passenger service linking Stowmarket with West Suffolk College in Bury St Edmunds, using a four-seat vehicle. A credible competitor would need to provide a vehicle and deliver transport reliably on this specific route over a sustained contract period. The procurement was competed through the council’s passenger transport Dynamic Purchasing System, so relevant suppliers would need to be positioned to take part in that route when competing for similar requirements. The buyer marked this opportunity as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises.
