The contract, awarded to Royal Rides, involves the supply of a 4-seated vehicle and a personal assistant. This procurement falls under the industry category of transport services, excluding waste transport (CPV code: 60000000). The contract period is scheduled to run from 1st October 2025 to 31st July 2026.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses within the transport sector, particularly those with the capacity to provide specialised passenger transport services. While Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport focuses on fulfilling its logistical needs efficiently, businesses that can deliver such services with reliability and a focus on customer service have a competitive edge. Given the scope of services required, companies with existing capacity and operations in or near Ipswich are particularly well-suited to compete for similar opportunities in future tenders. Collaboration with local councils opens pathways for long-term contractual relationships and business growth within the public sector procurement landscape.
