The requirement was for a vehicle with six passenger seats and a PA, indicating a scheduled transport service that includes passenger-assistance support. The main work category is transport services, under CPV 60000000. Delivery is associated with the Beccles, Worlingham and Aldeby area in Suffolk, with the buying organisation based in Ipswich. The procurement was run by Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport for its passenger transport needs. The selected service therefore combines vehicle provision, route operation and a passenger-assistance role rather than the supply of vehicles alone. It is a local passenger transport requirement centred on a specific journey between communities and a care or support destination. This procurement is complete and was awarded to PJ Wayland's Ltd on 28 August 2026. It was a mini-competition under the Dynamic Purchasing System for the supply of Passenger Transport Services. Submissions were due by 09:00 on 25 August 2026, and clarification questions by 09:00 on 24 August 2026. The awarded value is £0 GBP. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027, and the council reserved the right to extend it until 31 July 2028. The tender record shows a complete process and the award is active. The opportunity was identified as a services procurement, with suitability recorded as false for both SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. No lot split or separate award is recorded. For a supplier assessing future demand from this buyer, the award demonstrates a requirement for dedicated local passenger transport between Beccles, Worlingham and Aldeby, serving the Sense Centre. A credible competitor would need to operate a six-seat passenger vehicle and provide a PA as part of the service, with the capacity to cover the specified route consistently. Experience delivering organised passenger transport, coordinating journeys for people attending a support setting, and supplying suitable passenger assistance would be directly relevant. The procurement route also matters: this buyer uses a Dynamic Purchasing System and mini-competitions for passenger transport requirements, so suppliers would need to be able to participate through that route. The recorded SME and VCSE suitability settings indicate that competitors should assess their organisational fit carefully. ## 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.
