Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council procured a passenger transport service for one passenger, without a passenger assistant, on Route 70015 between Bognor Regis and Farney Close. The requirement falls within taxi services and is classified as a service contract. Delivery is associated with the PO19 1RQ area in West Sussex. The work is for a specific route rather than a broad transport network, so it is most relevant to operators able to provide dependable point-to-point passenger journeys along this corridor. The council is the buying organisation and the service requirement is local, with the route and passenger arrangement defining the operational scope.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. West Sussex County Council used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender submission deadline was 22 July 2026 at 12:00. The contract was awarded on 29 July 2026 to LEMON TECH SOLUTIONS LIMITED for £41,739.40 including the stated currency of GBP. The awarded contract period runs from 5 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. The contract value and period apply to the single route and passenger requirement. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and the award is active.

This award demonstrates demand from West Sussex County Council for dedicated, route-specific passenger transport serving a single passenger without a passenger assistant. A credible future supplier would need to operate suitable taxi or private-hire passenger transport services, provide reliable coverage between Bognor Regis and Farney Close, and manage the practicalities of a consistent individual journey. The requirement may suit smaller operators as well as larger transport businesses, particularly those familiar with council passenger transport arrangements. Experience of call-offs through a dynamic purchasing system would help a competitor respond efficiently to similar requirements, while dependable availability, route planning, safeguarding practice and service continuity would be important when demonstrating capability.
