The journey requires a four-seat vehicle and a passenger assistant. This is a local passenger transport service, rather than general bus or fleet provision, and the buyer is Suffolk County Council. The stated route identifies the collection area and school destination; the service is for an individual passenger, with an assistant required. The procurement sits within the council’s wider passenger transport purchasing arrangements. Its focus is the reliable delivery of a specific school journey, using a small vehicle and appropriate passenger-assistance provision. The procurement is complete and the award is active. Suffolk County Council selected Juber Nayeem T/A Jubz private hire Ltd. The award was made on 8 October 2026, at a value of £103,740. The contract runs from 12 October 2026 to 31 July 2029, with the council reserving the right to extend it up to 31 July 2030. This was a mini-competition under a dynamic purchasing system for passenger transport services. The invitation deadline was 8 October 2026, and clarification questions were due by 6 October 2026. The published information describes one service requirement: individual transport from Saxmundham to Thomas Wolsey School in Ormiston, using a four-seat vehicle with a passenger assistant. No evaluation criteria are stated. The award demonstrates demand from Suffolk County Council for a dedicated school transport journey combining a small vehicle with passenger assistance, rather than a standard route service. A credible competitor for this buyer’s comparable requirement would need to provide suitable four-seat private-hire transport, organise a passenger assistant, and reliably cover the Saxmundham–Ormiston journey. The selected supplier’s private-hire business indicates that this service can be delivered by a specialist local operator. The work is a defined, single-route service, so the relevant commercial strengths are dependable vehicle and staffing capacity for that route, plus the ability to meet the passenger-assistance requirement. The council used a mini-competition through its passenger transport dynamic purchasing system, making familiarity with that route to market relevant when a similar requirement is procured. ## Notice Suffolk County Council is seeking a mini competition against the following Dynamic Purchasing System: 'The supply of Passenger Transport Services', OJEU Notice Id: 2018/S 031-067685.
