Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport procured passenger transport services for a journey between Ipswich and AMPP Studio, Ipswich. The requirement specified a four-seated vehicle, indicating a small-scale vehicle service for a defined passenger route or transport need. The work is categorised as transport services and is delivered in Ipswich, Suffolk. The buying organisation is Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport, whose address is on Russell Road in Ipswich. The requirement was run as a mini-competition under the council’s Dynamic Purchasing System for the supply of passenger transport services. Businesses relevant to this opportunity are passenger transport operators able to provide a suitable four-seat vehicle and deliver scheduled services locally in Ipswich.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a mini-competition under a Dynamic Purchasing System for passenger transport services. The award was made to Andrew Fisk on 13 August 2026 for £2,447.20. The awarded contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. The original submission deadline was 13 August 2026 at 09:00, with clarification questions due by 09:00 on 12 August 2026. The tender specified a four-seated vehicle for the Ipswich to AMPP Studio requirement. The award is active. The published information identifies the procurement category as services and the transport classification as CPV 60000000. The procurement was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises.

For suppliers that did not win, this award demonstrates a defined local requirement for passenger transport using a four-seat vehicle. A credible competitor for a future requirement from Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport would need reliable access to an appropriate vehicle, the ability to provide passenger transport services in Ipswich, and the operational capacity to meet a scheduled journey requirement. Experience of working through a Dynamic Purchasing System and responding to mini-competitions would be commercially relevant, as this buyer uses that route for its passenger transport needs. The relatively focused vehicle requirement may suit an operator with direct control of a small passenger vehicle and dependable local availability, while the council’s recorded SME and VCSE suitability settings indicate that smaller or community-sector suppliers should examine future qualification and participation conditions carefully.
