Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council has completed the procurement process for the provision of taxi services under the title "WSCC Route 7356," classified within the CPV category 60120000. The contract, valued at £33,439.16, was awarded to ACTIVE CAB LTD, a supplier identified as a small and medium-sized enterprise (SME). The procurement method was selective, with a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. This tender process reached the award stage on 25th August 2025, with the contract period set from 1st September 2025 to 31st July 2026, specific to the South East region of the United Kingdom. The involvement of Nataliia Zavalniuk from the council as the contact point indicates effective management and communication throughout the process.

This contract offers growth opportunities for businesses in the taxi services sector, particularly those operating within the South East region of the UK. Although the procurement was not specifically targeted at SMEs or Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprises (VCSE), SMEs such as ACTIVE CAB LTD can still benefit significantly from participation in such contracts. Companies with a robust framework for scaling operations and a reliable service delivery capability can compete effectively for these dynamic purchasing system call-offs, thereby enhancing their market presence and reliability within government frameworks. The strategic award to a local SME demonstrates the potential for businesses of similar scale to benefit from local government contracts.
