Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport procured a passenger transport service for a four-seat journey from Cottenham, Cambridgeshire, to Hatfield Wick, Hatfield Peverel. This is a small-capacity, point-to-point transport requirement rather than a general transport service. The route description identifies the origin and destination; the service is managed by the council’s passenger transport function. The procurement falls within passenger transport services (CPV 60000000).

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Cam Cab Ltd. The council ran a mini-competition under its Dynamic Purchasing System for passenger transport services. The award date was 13 October 2026, and the contract runs from 14 October 2026 to 31 July 2027. The awarded contract value is £27,018. The service covers the specified Cottenham-to-Hatfield Wick route and four-seat capacity. The published information does not set out the evaluation criteria or supplier eligibility requirements, so the award outcome and identified service scope are the available basis for understanding how the competition was decided.

For future work of this kind, a credible supplier would need to provide passenger transport for a defined journey between Cambridgeshire and Hatfield Peverel, with capacity appropriate to a four-seat requirement. The award shows that Suffolk County Council uses a Dynamic Purchasing System and mini-competitions to source these route-specific services, and that a passenger transport operator can win work through this route. Operators whose fleet, driver availability and day-to-day service delivery can meet a small-capacity journey requirement are the closest fit. The specific route and capacity indicate that bids need to address a tightly scoped transport need, rather than rely on a broad transport offer alone.
