Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council procured a taxi service for Route 10011, carrying two passengers between Ifield and Crawley and Meath School in West Sussex. The requirement is for a four-seat vehicle and concerns a specific school transport route, rather than general taxi provision. The council is based in Chichester; the route serves Ifield and Crawley and Meath School. The work is a passenger transport service for a small number of passengers, with vehicle capacity and ability to serve the route central to delivery.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to FLEETLINE CARS on 19 August 2026. The awarded contract value is £37,048.18. The service period runs from 26 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. The council used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender deadline was 12 August 2026 at 12:00. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The published information does not set out evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements beyond that suitability indication.

This award demonstrates West Sussex County Council’s demand for dedicated school transport on a defined route between Ifield and Crawley and Meath School, with capacity for two passengers in a four-seat vehicle. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need to provide dependable taxi transport for school journeys and operate the specified route reliably. The successful supplier was FLEETLINE CARS, a transport business based in Crawley. The council used a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, so suppliers seeking comparable work would need to be positioned to compete through that route. The requirement is suited to smaller transport operators as well as larger providers, provided they can meet the route’s passenger and vehicle needs.
