Summary of the contracting process

Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport has awarded a contract for the provision of transport services under a dynamic purchasing system, as announced on 17th September 2025. This award, valued at £55,860, is aligned with the "Transport services (excluding waste transport)" industry category, covering routes from Cockfield to The Ryes College & Community in Assington, Suffolk. The contract period runs from 22nd September 2025 to 31st July 2028. This procurement process falls under the services category and was completed with an award stage. The Suffolk-based authority managed the tender, catering predominantly to organisations within the United Kingdom and is classified as suitable for larger enterprises rather than SMEs or VCSEs.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses involved in passenger transport services to expand their operations within the Suffolk region over a nearly three-year period. With Suffolk County Council as the buying organisation, companies with fleet management capabilities or expertise in providing transport services could greatly benefit from engaging in similar public procurement processes in the future. Those able to offer reliable and cost-effective transport solutions, particularly within the educational sector, will find themselves competitively positioned to take advantage of upcoming tenders and potential growth within the industry.
