Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport procured a passenger transport service for a school journey from Ipswich to Holbrook Primary School. The requirement was for a four-seater vehicle fitted with a Group 2/3 child car seat, indicating a small-capacity, child-focused transport arrangement rather than general bus or coach provision. The service falls within transport services (CPV 60000000) and is classified as a service procurement. Delivery is associated with Ipswich, including the council’s Russell Road base, and Holbrook Primary School. The requirement was run by Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport for its education-related passenger transport needs.

This procurement has been awarded and is complete. Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport ran a mini-competition under its Dynamic Purchasing System for the supply of passenger transport services. The submission deadline was 3 September 2026 at 09:00, with clarification questions due by 1 September 2026 at 09:00. IMRGK LTD was awarded the contract on 8 September 2026 for £20,900 including the stated currency of GBP. The awarded contract period runs from 9 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. The published outcome identifies one active award and one supplier. The procurement record does not set out separate lots or an evaluation weighting.

For a supplier that did not win this award, the procurement demonstrates demand for local, small-capacity school passenger transport rather than large fleet operation. A credible competitor would need a suitable four-seater vehicle, the required Group 2/3 child car seat and the practical capacity to provide a dependable journey between Ipswich and Holbrook Primary School. Experience in passenger transport for school users would help demonstrate understanding of the operating context, while reliable vehicle availability and the ability to meet tightly defined journey requirements would be important. The buyer’s use of a Dynamic Purchasing System and mini-competition shows that suppliers need to monitor this route and respond through the required procurement process when comparable requirements arise.
