The requirement is for an eight-seat service, supporting transport to the school rather than general public transport. The work is associated with Suffolk, with the council based in Ipswich and the journey starting in the Brandon and Euston area. The procurement falls within transport services (CPV 60000000). It was run as a mini-competition under the council’s Dynamic Purchasing System for the supply of passenger transport services. The requirement is a contracted service for a defined school route, making it relevant to operators providing small-capacity, scheduled education transport. The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a mini-competition under a Dynamic Purchasing System. All Day Cars was selected as supplier on 1 September 2026 for £192,850. The awarded contract runs from 3 September 2026 to 31 August 2031. The original submission deadline was 1 September 2026 at 09:00, and clarification questions had to be submitted by 27 August 2026 at 09:00. The council reserved the right to extend the contract to 31 July 2033. The underlying requirement was for an eight-seat school transport service between Brandon and Euston and Ixworth High School. The award is recorded as active and the tender as complete. This award provides a clear example of Suffolk County Council’s demand for small-capacity school transport on a defined local route. A credible future competitor would need to operate passenger transport services suitable for an eight-seat requirement and have the practical capacity to serve journeys between Brandon and Euston and Ixworth High School. The successful supplier, All Day Cars, is a Suffolk-based operator, indicating the value of local operating capability for this type of work. Suppliers with experience delivering reliable school-route transport, access to appropriately sized vehicles and the organisational capacity to participate in the council’s Dynamic Purchasing System would be better placed to compete when a comparable requirement 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.
