Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process concluded with the award stage on 30th December 2025. The service involves providing a four-seated vehicle transport from Reydon to AMPP studio in Ipswich. It covers various locations, including the United Kingdom, and expands to British Overseas Territories and Europe. The contract period is set from 5th January 2026 to 30th June 2026. There is no specific procurement method detailed for this tender, described simply as 'Not specified'. The key deadline for submissions for this tender was on the 24th of December 2025 at 9:00 AM, with a clarification question cut-off on 23rd December 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for passenger transport providers looking to collaborate with council authorities. It is particularly suitable for businesses with experience and capability in short-distance transport services in and around Ipswich. Although the procurement process does not specifically favour small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), it remains an attractive opportunity for established passenger transport companies, such as LOYAL EXPRESS CABS LTD, which was awarded the contract. Engaging in such contracts can lead to increased visibility, credibility, and potential future collaborations with local government entities like Suffolk County Council.
