Summary of the contracting process

Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport has completed a procurement process related to providing passenger transport services, culminating in an award. The tender, titled "QBE995 0900 2025-11-03 Mildenhall - Include, Bury St Edmunds (4-seated vehicle required)", falls under the industry category of Transport Services (excluding Waste transport) with the CPV code 60000000. The contract is set to commence on 4th November 2025 and conclude on 31st July 2030. The procurement was conducted as a mini competition through a Dynamic Purchasing System, responding to the OJEU Notice Id: 2018/S 031-067685, and the tender stage is now marked as complete, with the award taking place on 3rd November 2025. Suffolk, specifically the area covered by addresses such as IP1 2BX, is the designated location for the service.

This tender represents significant opportunities for growth for businesses within the transport service industry, particularly those capable of providing specialised passenger transport solutions. The successful bidder, Zoom Cambridge Cars Ltd, demonstrates that businesses with logistical capabilities in managing transport solutions and the ability to utilise a fleet of smaller vehicles, such as a 4-seater car, are likely to find success. Although the tender stipulates no specific suitability criteria for SMEs or VCSEs, organisations with a strong local presence and understanding of passenger transport dynamics in the Suffolk region would be well-suited for similar opportunities in the future.
