## Summary

Suffolk County Council coordinated a procurement process for transporting students to Morland Primary School in Ipswich, utilising a Dynamic Purchasing System for the supply of passenger transport services. This tender, which required a four-seated vehicle and a PA, was completed as a mini competition under CPV classification 60000000: Transport Services (excluding Waste Transport). This selective procurement method involved a call-off from an existing dynamic purchasing system. The procurement process reached the award stage and concluded successfully with contracts signed for the period from 23 February 2026 to 30 June 2027. The award date was 17 February 2026, with significant contract updates published on 20 March 2026.

The procurement represents a valuable opportunity for transport-oriented businesses, especially those capable of meeting specific transport needs in Ipswich, Suffolk, and beyond. Though suitability does not cater to SMEs or VCSEs specifically, larger transport providers can benefit from engaging with Suffolk County Council’s dynamic purchasing arrangements. Two awards were issued: one to All Travel Services LTD, valued at £41,399.10, and the other to Universal Cabs Ltd, valued at £39,501.00. Companies with a robust operational capability and familiarity with public transport services are well-positioned to compete for such contracts, potentially paving the way for future growth opportunities through local government partnerships.
