Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport procured a passenger transport service for the Centre Academy East Anglia in Brettenham, serving the Rougham area. The requirement was for a four-seated vehicle to provide transport associated with the academy. It falls within transport services, classified under CPV 60000000, and is a services contract. The buying organisation is Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport, based in Ipswich, Suffolk. The stated delivery location includes the IP1 2BX postcode and the United Kingdom. The requirement is specific to passenger transport rather than vehicle supply, general logistics or waste transport, making it relevant to operators able to provide a small-capacity vehicle for this education-related journey.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Suffolk County Council ran a mini-competition under its Dynamic Purchasing System for the supply of passenger transport services. Submissions were due by 09:00 on 13 August 2026, with clarification questions due by 09:00 on 12 August 2026. The contract was awarded to All Day Cars on 14 August 2026 for £98,800. The awarded contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2031. The award is active. The published process recorded the requirement as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. This was a single passenger transport requirement rather than a multi-lot procurement.

For a supplier that did not win, this award demonstrates a defined requirement for small-capacity passenger transport connected with Centre Academy East Anglia and the Rougham–Brettenham area. A credible future competitor would need access to a four-seated vehicle and the operational ability to provide the specified passenger transport service for an education setting. Experience of responding to mini-competitions under a Dynamic Purchasing System would be directly relevant, as this was the route used by Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport. The buyer’s stated classification as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises indicates that larger, established transport operators were considered the appropriate supplier profile for this requirement.
