Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council procured a taxi service for Route 70019, carrying pupils from Henfield to Minerva May School. The route requires four passenger seats and one passenger assistant. The service is for school transport, with delivery between Henfield and the school; the procurement lists a delivery address in Chichester, West Sussex. The work is a passenger taxi service (CPV 60120000).

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to EZY GATWICK LTD. The award date was 2 September 2026. The awarded value is £29,940.71. The contract period runs from 9 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. The council used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender deadline was 26 August 2026 at 12:00. The service was specified for one route, with four seats and one passenger assistant; West Sussex County Council marked the opportunity as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

For a supplier considering similar school transport requirements for West Sussex County Council, this award shows demand for a dedicated taxi route carrying pupils from Henfield to Minerva May School, with capacity for four passengers and provision of a passenger assistant. Credible competitors would need to operate a suitable passenger transport service, provide the specified vehicle capacity and arrange an assistant for the journey. The council procured this service through a call-off from its dynamic purchasing system, so suppliers seeking comparable work would need to be able to compete through that route. The requirement is relatively focused: a single school journey rather than a wider transport network, with a small passenger capacity and an additional staffing requirement.
