Summary of the contracting process

Suffolk County Council has completed a procurement process for the provision of transport services titled "QSB264 0900 2025-06-27 Rendlesham-Centre academy East Anglia, Brettenham (4-seated vehicle required)" through a selective procurement method under a dynamic purchasing system called "The supply of Passenger Transport Services". The tender was part of the services category, specifically excluding waste transport, and covered locations across East Anglia, Brettenham, and internationally, including the British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, and the UK. The contract period starts on the 3rd of September 2025 and ends on the 31st of July 2030, with an awarded value of GBP 136,800. The award date was the 29th of August 2025. The tender was managed by Suffolk County Council's Passenger Transport department, with Marina Akhmetzyanova as the contact point.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the transportation sector, particularly those able to provide passenger transport services. Although this contract was awarded to Call A Cab Ipswich, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with relevant experience and capability to manage such transport logistics can pursue similar opportunities in the future, especially within selective procurement frameworks. Engaging in dynamic purchasing systems can offer businesses a steady pipeline of opportunities, by being pre-qualified for call-offs such as this one. The tender is suitable for companies with a focus on service delivery that aligns with the public sector's requirements for compliance and cost-effectiveness.
