Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council procured a passenger transport service on Route 53502, covering travel from Haywards Heath to Manor Green Primary. The requirement is for a vehicle with four seats, one passenger assistant, and a large boot, supporting the transport of pupils and associated belongings on this route. The procurement is categorised as taxi services. Delivery is associated with Haywards Heath, Manor Green Primary and the West Sussex area. This is a services contract for a specific route rather than a general taxi framework or fleet-wide transport requirement. The buyer is West Sussex County Council, based in Chichester, and the opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. West Sussex County Council used a selective procedure, specifically a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. A contract was awarded to AERO MOBILITY CARS LTD on 29 July 2026 for £43,733.26 including the stated currency, GBP. The contract period runs from 5 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. The tender submission deadline was 22 July 2026 at 12:00. The award covers the single Route 53502 requirement from Haywards Heath to Manor Green Primary. The award is active, and the published outcome identifies AERO MOBILITY CARS LTD as the successful supplier.

This award demonstrates demand from West Sussex County Council for dedicated school-route passenger transport delivered by an SME. A credible future competitor would need to provide a suitable vehicle with four passenger seats, capacity for one passenger assistant, and a large boot, together with the operational capability to run the Haywards Heath to Manor Green Primary route reliably. Relevant taxi or passenger transport experience, dependable scheduling, safeguarding-aware school transport operations, and the ability to work within a dynamic purchasing system would strengthen a supplier’s position. The requirement is route-specific, so local operating knowledge, suitable vehicle availability, and capacity to maintain consistent service throughout the contract would be commercially important.
