Summary of the contracting process

Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport has completed the procurement process for the project titled "QOC727 0900 2025-01-27 Barrow to Aurora Eccles School Quidenham (4-seated vehicle and a PA required) - AWARD". This contract, which falls under the Transport services industry category (excluding Waste transport), covers services in the East of England, United Kingdom, and is classified with CPV id 60000000. The tender process culminated in an award on 28th January 2025, with crucial deadlines for submission and clarification questions set in January 2025. The contract period is specified from 3rd February 2025 to 31st July 2029.

This awarded tender presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for companies specialising in transportation services. Such companies can leverage this procurement to gain long-term stability and an official association with a prominent public entity like Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) weren't specifically suited for this opportunity, suggesting that larger or well-established transport providers like Nice Travel Solutions Limited, the successful supplier, are in a better position to compete. Engaging with such dynamic purchasing systems can foster long-term partnerships and offer a steady revenue stream.
