Summary of the contracting process

Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport procured passenger transport services for a specific education journey from Stowlongtoft to Let’s Kick It at Cambridge Education Centre in Cambridgeshire. The requirement was for a four-seater vehicle, including a 7pm collection. This is a transport service rather than a goods or construction contract, classified under CPV 60000000 for transport services excluding waste transport. The buying organisation is based at Russell Road, Ipswich, Suffolk. The procurement relates to a single passenger transport requirement delivered between Suffolk and Cambridgeshire, with the journey and collection arrangements forming the central operational scope. The requirement was run as a mini-competition under the Dynamic Purchasing System for the supply of Passenger Transport Services.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a mini-competition under the Dynamic Purchasing System for Passenger Transport Services. The contract was awarded to Skyline247 Limited on 11 September 2026 for £13,290.12 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 16 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. The tender submission deadline was 09:00 on 11 September 2026, and clarification questions closed at 09:00 on 9 September 2026. The award record shows one active award and one supplier. The procurement method was a Dynamic Purchasing System mini-competition; the published information does not set out separate price, quality or other evaluation weightings. The tender was marked complete.

This award indicates demand for scheduled, small-capacity passenger transport supporting education-related travel between Suffolk and Cambridgeshire. Suppliers well placed for a future requirement of this type would need access to a reliable four-seater vehicle, the capacity to provide a planned outward journey and a 7pm collection, and the operational ability to cover the route consistently throughout the service period. Relevant experience in passenger transport, school or education journeys, driver and vehicle scheduling, and meeting fixed collection times would strengthen a competitor’s position. The route demonstrates that the buyer may require cross-county coverage rather than purely local journeys. The use of a Passenger Transport Services Dynamic Purchasing System also makes familiarity with that purchasing route important for businesses seeking similar work from Suffolk County Council.
