Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport procured passenger transport services for the QIP408 journey between Felixstowe and Ipswich, described as “On track, Ipswich”. The requirement was for a vehicle with four seats, indicating a small-scale, dedicated passenger transport service rather than a larger public bus operation. Delivery is associated with Ipswich and the Felixstowe route, with the council’s passenger transport function acting as the buyer. The service falls within transport services, excluding waste transport. The requirement was run as a mini-competition under the Dynamic Purchasing System for the supply of Passenger Transport Services, so it forms part of the council’s wider programme of individually specified passenger transport journeys.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport selected Juber Nayeem T/A Jubz private hire Ltd. The award was made on 14 August 2026 for £4,248.40 including the stated GBP currency. The awarded contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. It was conducted as a mini-competition under the Dynamic Purchasing System for the supply of Passenger Transport Services. Returned submissions were due by 09:00 on 13 August 2026, with clarification questions due by 09:00 on 12 August 2026. The tender was classified as a services procurement and recorded the requirement as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

For a supplier that did not win this award, the opportunity demonstrates demand for compact, route-specific passenger transport around Felixstowe and Ipswich. A credible competitor would need access to a reliable four-seated vehicle and the operational ability to provide scheduled passenger journeys consistently across the service period. Private-hire operators with suitable local coverage, dependable drivers, appropriate passenger transport compliance and the capacity to respond to tightly timed mini-competitions would be well placed. Experience of delivering council-funded or similar passenger transport services would help demonstrate reliability, safeguarding and service continuity. Familiarity with the buyer’s Dynamic Purchasing System and its electronic competition process would also be important for competing effectively when comparable requirements return.
