Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport procured passenger transport services for a journey from Ipswich to the New Skill Centre in Ipswich. The requirement was for a four-seater vehicle, with a passenger assistant trained in allergy awareness and asthma awareness. A meet-and-greet service was also required. The work is categorised as transport services, covering the transport of passengers rather than goods or waste. Delivery is centred on Ipswich, with the stated service location at the New Skill Centre and the buyer based on Russell Road, Ipswich. This requirement would suit a private hire, community transport or specialist passenger transport operator able to provide a small vehicle and appropriately trained passenger assistance for a passenger journey connected with the skills centre.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded on 16 September 2026 following a mini-competition under the Dynamic Purchasing System for the supply of passenger transport services. The award went to Juber Nayeem T/A Jubz private hire Ltd. The awarded value is £78,736. The contract runs from 21 September 2026 to 31 July 2029. The tender submission deadline was 16 September 2026 at 09:00, and the clarification-question deadline was 14 September 2026 at 09:00. The requirement was treated as a services procurement and was not divided into stated lots. The buyer recorded the opportunity as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The process used the established passenger transport dynamic purchasing system route.

For a supplier that did not win, this award provides a clear benchmark for serving Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport on small, planned passenger journeys in Ipswich. A credible competitor would need access to a four-seat vehicle, the ability to provide reliable passenger assistance, and staff trained in both allergy awareness and asthma awareness. The requirement also indicates that meet-and-greet capability matters, so operators should be able to support passengers at collection and arrival rather than providing vehicle-only transport. Experience delivering safe, punctual private hire or community passenger services would strengthen a future response, alongside the operational capacity to cover a regular journey to the New Skill Centre. Suppliers would also need to understand and use the council’s passenger transport dynamic purchasing system and its mini-competition process.
