Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport procured passenger transport services for a scheduled journey from Stanstead to Hartest Primary School. The requirement was for a six-seat vehicle, indicating a small-scale school transport service rather than general fleet provision. The buying organisation is Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport, based in Ipswich, Suffolk. The service falls within transport services, excluding waste transport, under CPV 60000000. The requirement concerns transporting passengers to and from the named school route, with delivery associated with Stanstead and Hartest Primary School in Suffolk. It was run as a specific requirement under the council’s passenger transport purchasing arrangements.

The procurement is complete and was awarded following a mini-competition under the Dynamic Purchasing System for the supply of passenger transport services. The submission deadline was 26 August 2026 at 09:00, with clarification questions due by 24 August 2026 at 09:00. The contract was awarded on 26 August 2026 to Anastasios Tsanaktzidis trading as Green Line Private Hire for £150,955. The contract period runs from 3 September 2026 to 31 August 2031. Suffolk County Council reserved the right to extend the contract until 31 July 2033. The award is recorded as active, while the overall procurement is complete. The published information does not state an award scoring basis.

This award shows demand from Suffolk County Council for dedicated, small-capacity school passenger transport on a defined rural route. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need access to a suitable six-seat vehicle, the ability to provide reliable scheduled journeys between Stanstead and Hartest Primary School, and the operational resilience to deliver consistently throughout the school service period. Experience in passenger transport, particularly school or contract transport, would help demonstrate that the provider can manage punctuality, safeguarding expectations, route planning and day-to-day communication with the council. Suppliers should also be capable of participating in a mini-competition through the council’s passenger transport Dynamic Purchasing System.
