The requirement is for a four-seat vehicle and a personal assistant, indicating a small-capacity passenger transport service with passenger support. The main work category is passenger transport services, classified under CPV 60000000. Delivery is associated with Haverhill and Nacton, within the United Kingdom, with the buyer based in Ipswich, Suffolk. The procurement was run by Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport for its transport service needs. Suppliers operating passenger vehicles and providing assisted or accompanied transport are the relevant type of business for this requirement. This procurement is complete and has been awarded through a mini-competition under the Dynamic Purchasing System for the supply of Passenger Transport Services. The award was made on 26 August 2026 to 24x7 Ltd for £33,288. The awarded contract runs from 7 September 2026 to 31 August 2027, with the council reserving the right to extend it until 31 July 2028. The tender submission deadline was 09:00 on 26 August 2026, and clarification questions closed at 09:00 on 25 August 2026. The requirement was evaluated through the purchasing system’s competition process. The procurement is categorised as services, and the published suitability assessment marked it as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. For a supplier that did not win, this award demonstrates that Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport uses its passenger transport purchasing system to source small-capacity, assisted journeys involving a four-seat vehicle and a personal assistant. A credible future competitor would need to operate suitable passenger transport vehicles, provide reliable scheduled journeys between locations such as Haverhill and Nacton, and supply a personal assistant able to support passengers throughout delivery. The successful supplier’s award shows that the council places requirements of this type with a dedicated passenger transport operator rather than a general goods or works contractor. Businesses considering this market should therefore assess their ability to provide both transport capacity and appropriate passenger support through the council’s dynamic purchasing system. ## 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.
