Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the contract titled "Route 7331.02 Bognor to Unsted Park - Car, No PA" was managed by West Sussex County Council, focusing on taxi services within the South East region of the United Kingdom. This procurement was conducted under a selective method as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender phase concluded on 30th October 2025, with the contract scheduled to commence on 13th November 2025 and run until 31st July 2026. The award stage was completed with EXCEL TRANSPORT SERVICES LTD as the successful supplier, officially published on 12th February 2026.

This tender provides business growth opportunities for organisations involved in taxi services, specifically those capable of responding to dynamic purchasing systems. Although the contract was awarded to a small to medium-sized enterprise (SME), businesses of all scales within the transportation sector could benefit from similar opportunities by enhancing their service offerings and aligning with public sector requirements. Given its nature as a call-off contract, firms with a flexible operational model and the ability to fulfil specific transport routes will be particularly well-positioned to pursue future tenders from West Sussex County Council or similar public entities.
