Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council procured a passenger taxi service for its Route 7399, carrying up to four passengers without a personal assistant between Horsham and Moor House in Oxted. The requirement is classified as taxi services and falls within the services category. Delivery is associated with West Sussex in the South East of England, with the buying authority based in Chichester. The service is a defined transport route rather than a general taxi framework or vehicle supply requirement. It is therefore most relevant to operators providing scheduled passenger transport, school or community transport, or taxi services capable of covering the Horsham–Oxted journey with a suitable four-seat vehicle.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. West Sussex County Council used a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The submission deadline was 22 July 2026 at 12:00, and the award was made on 29 July 2026. EASY ACCESSIBLE CARS LTD was selected for a contract worth £28,567.13. The contract runs from 5 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. The requirement was treated as unsuitable for both SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The published outcome identifies one supplier and one route requirement; no separate lots or additional award values are stated.

For a supplier that did not win this award, the procurement demonstrates recurring demand from West Sussex County Council for dedicated, route-based passenger transport between Horsham and Oxted. A credible competitor would need to operate taxi or passenger transport services, provide a vehicle with four available seats, and deliver journeys reliably without relying on a personal assistant. Local knowledge of the route and the ability to maintain consistent service throughout the contract period would be commercially relevant. Experience of public-sector or education-related transport may also help demonstrate operational reliability, although the requirement itself does not state specific accreditations, qualifications or technical standards.
