Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport procured passenger transport services for route QIP135, carrying passengers from Ipswich to One Sixth Form College. The requirement is for a vehicle with four seated places and does not require a passenger assistant. The route operates on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, so the work suits an operator able to provide regular scheduled journeys on those days. Delivery is associated with Ipswich and the college route, with the buyer based on Russell Road in Ipswich. This is a transport services requirement rather than a vehicle supply, construction or general facilities contract. The procurement was run by Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport as the buying organisation.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a mini-competition under the Dynamic Purchasing System for the supply of passenger transport services. The submission deadline was 2 September 2026 at 9am, with clarification questions due by 1 September 2026 at 9am. The award was made on 3 September 2026 to Juber Nayeem T/A Jubz private hire Ltd for £25,878. The awarded contract runs from 9 September 2026 to 31 July 2029. The council reserved the right to extend the contract until 31 July 2030. The recorded service category is transport services, under CPV 60000000. The process is marked complete and the award is active.

For a future requirement of this type, a credible competitor would need to operate passenger transport services on a reliable, recurring schedule between Ipswich and One Sixth Form College. The winning specification indicates a need for a four-seated vehicle, with capacity matched to a small passenger group and no passenger assistant requirement. Operators should therefore be able to provide an appropriately sized vehicle, dependable weekday availability on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, and the operational discipline needed for repeated education journeys. Experience delivering contracted passenger transport, maintaining punctual services and managing a fixed route would strengthen a supplier’s position when this buyer next tests the requirement through its passenger transport purchasing system.
