The requirement was for a four-seater vehicle, indicating a small-scale passenger transport operation rather than a bulk fleet service. The work falls within transport services, excluding waste transport, and is classified under CPV 60000000. The buyer is Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport, based in Ipswich. The delivery information includes Haverhill and the wider United Kingdom. The service supports the transport of passengers between Glemsford and WS Training, Haverhill, using a vehicle suitable for up to four occupants. This is a services procurement, rather than a purchase of vehicles or transport infrastructure. The procurement has been completed and awarded following a mini-competition under the Dynamic Purchasing System for the supply of Passenger Transport Services. The submission deadline was 1 September 2026 at 09:00, and the clarification question deadline was 28 August 2026 at 09:00. Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport awarded the contract to Dash Travel UK Ltd on 1 September 2026. The awarded value is £22,869.54. The award contract period runs from 8 September 2026 to 31 July 2029. The requirement was evaluated through the Dynamic Purchasing System route; the available information does not set out separate quality or price weightings. The procurement was recorded as complete, with the award active. This award is useful market evidence for passenger transport operators serving Suffolk, particularly businesses able to provide reliable journeys in a four-seater vehicle. A credible future competitor would need to operate within the council’s Dynamic Purchasing System for passenger transport services and be prepared to respond to mini-competitions for defined routes and passenger requirements. Local knowledge of journeys between Glemsford and Haverhill would be relevant, as would the practical capacity to provide regular transport to WS Training. The selected supplier, Dash Travel UK Ltd, is based in Haverhill, showing the value of being established near the delivery area. Operators with suitable vehicles, dependable scheduling and experience delivering passenger journeys for public-sector requirements would be best placed to compete when comparable work returns. ## 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.
