Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council procured a taxi service for a single passenger on route 20042, from Fernhurst to Anstey Manor. The requirement is a passenger journey service with no passenger assistant. Delivery is associated with West Sussex; the council is based in Chichester. The work falls within passenger taxi services and is aimed at a specific route rather than a general transport service. Small and medium-sized businesses were considered suitable to provide the service. The route and single-passenger requirement define the core scope for suppliers assessing whether their vehicles, operating area and service model match this buyer’s transport needs.

The procurement is complete and a contract was awarded to 24X7 West Sussex Limited. The award was made on 2 September 2026, for £39,943.49. The contract period runs from 9 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. The stated estimated procurement value is also £39,943.49. The council used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, with bids due by 26 August 2026. The requirement was for one passenger on a single route, rather than a multi-lot procurement. The published information identifies suitability for SMEs but gives no further evaluation criteria or specific eligibility conditions.

This award shows West Sussex County Council’s demand for a dedicated taxi journey for one passenger between Fernhurst and Anstey Manor. The selected supplier, 24X7 West Sussex Limited, is an SME, demonstrating that a smaller local operator can deliver this type of route-based service. Suppliers seeking to compete when a comparable requirement returns will need to be able to serve both ends of the route reliably, provide appropriate passenger transport, and operate at the scale of a single-passenger contract. Experience running scheduled, individual journeys and the capacity to meet the council’s route and service requirements would be commercially relevant. The buying route was a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, so credible competitors should be positioned to participate through that route.
