Summary of the contracting process

Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport has completed the procurement process to secure a supplier for passenger transport services, specifically from Lowestoft to educational facilities in Ipswich. The procurement falls within the transport services industry, excluding waste transport, classified under CPV code 60000000. The award stage was reached, with the project having a tender period ending on 22nd December 2025, and the contract is set to commence on 5th January 2026, concluding on 31st July 2027. Business entities interested in transport services should note that this procurement was facilitated through a dynamic purchasing system, and the awarded contract is valued at £50,091.60 GBP.

This procurement presents a strategic growth opportunity for businesses specialising in transport services, particularly those operating within the United Kingdom and capable of supplying reliable passenger transport for educational purposes. Licensed and experienced suppliers, even beyond local operations, are well-suited for such contracts due to the distribution scope highlighted by the postal and country addressing. Although the procurement process itself has been completed with YOURCAB LIMITED securing the contract, similar future opportunities may benefit other capable companies looking to expand their service reach in the public sector by aligning with council-led transport projects.
