Summary of the contracting process

Suffolk County Council has completed the procurement process for providing passenger transport services in Bury St Edmunds and surrounding areas. This tender was executed through a selective procurement method via a Dynamic Purchasing System, focusing on the transport services industry. Key dates included a submission deadline on 1st July 2025 and an award made to CABS on 2nd July 2025. The contract period is scheduled from 3rd September 2025 to 31st July 2026, covering delivery across the United Kingdom and several other territories.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the transport sector, particularly those capable of supplying passenger services. SMEs may not be directly suitable for this tender; however, larger enterprises with a robust fleet and services including four-seated vehicles, as required by the contract, stand to benefit from participating in similar opportunities. Given the consistency of service demands from local councils, businesses with experience in fulfilling public sector contracts would be well-positioned to pursue such lucrative opportunities in passenger transport services.
