Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council procured taxi transport on Route 53500, serving travel from Burgess Hill to Queen Elizabeth II Silver Jubilee. The requirement is described as a four-seat taxi service for one route. It falls within passenger taxi services and is a services contract. Delivery is associated with the South East of England, with the council’s address in Chichester, West Sussex. The named route and seating requirement indicate a focused transport operation rather than a broad taxi framework or general vehicle-hire service. The buying organisation is West Sussex County Council, which is responsible for arranging and using the service.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to EZY GATWICK LTD on 29 July 2026. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender submission deadline was 22 July 2026 at 12:00. The award value is £48,539.21, including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 5 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. The awarded supplier is active on the procurement. The published information identifies the contract as a single requirement for the named route and does not set out separate lots. The stated suitability indicators do not identify the opportunity as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises.

For a supplier that did not win this award, the procurement shows that West Sussex County Council buys dedicated taxi transport for a defined route and a small passenger capacity through its dynamic purchasing system. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need to operate reliable taxi services, provide a suitable four-seat vehicle, and organise consistent coverage between Burgess Hill and the Queen Elizabeth II Silver Jubilee destination. It would also need to understand and use the council’s dynamic purchasing system call-off route, meet the authority’s operational requirements, and demonstrate sufficient capacity to deliver the whole route service throughout the required contract period.
