Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, spearheaded by Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport, focused on sourcing passenger transport services for the route from Eye to Hartismere Place Day Centre at Castleton Way, Eye, IP23 7DD. This contract, part of a Dynamic Purchasing System under the OJEU Notice Id: 2018/S 031-067685, specifically required a 4-seater vehicle. The procurement stage is complete, with an award dated 3rd November 2025, and the contract period spans from 6th November 2025 to 31st October 2030. This project, classified under the transport services industry category, caters to several regions including the United Kingdom, British Oversea Territories, and more, with a submission deadline of 3rd November 2025 at 0900.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses involved in passenger transport services, particularly those equipped with smaller vehicles like a 4-seater, to engage in long-term projects with public institutions. Companies similar to ABLE TAXIS Ltd, which was awarded the contract, can benefit from engaging in structured public sector collaborations, potentially expanding their client base and securing stable, recurring revenue streams over a five-year contract period. Although it may not directly cater to SMEs and voluntary community sector enterprises, established transport providers can profit from this opportunity to fortify their positions in the market.
