Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport focuses on the supply of a four-seated vehicle for transportation services, classified under the CPV category "Transport services (excl. Waste transport)." With the contract award completed as of 12th March 2026, the successful tender is part of a mini competition under a Dynamic Purchasing System. The contract for services at Olive Academy in Stowmarket begins on 16th March 2026 and concludes on 31st July 2026. Located in Suffolk, United Kingdom, this procurement process offers a structured timeline, with submissions closed by 9:00 on 11th March 2026, and questions for clarification due by the day prior.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in passenger transport services, particularly enterprises capable of providing reliable and consistent vehicle solutions. Small and medium enterprises or voluntary, community, and social enterprises may not find this opportunity well-suited considering the tender's specifications. However, for established transport providers, such as Kelly's Cabs (Alan Kelly), which has been awarded the contract valued at £8,844.50, this tender can bolster business growth through strategic partnerships aligning with public sector requirements. The succinct procurement process facilitates engagement with local authorities, creating potential long-term collaborations.
