Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council has commissioned an accessible vehicle service for one passenger on route 99983, transporting them from Horsham to the Butterfly Project. This is a passenger transport service, classified as taxi services (CPV 60120000). The route begins in Horsham and serves the Butterfly Project; the procurement lists Chichester as a delivery location. The council is based in Chichester. The requirement is specifically for accessible transport for a single passenger, rather than general taxi provision.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to AERO MOBILITY CARS LTD. The award was made on 2 September 2026, at a value of £41,224.50. The contract runs from 9 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. West Sussex County Council used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender deadline was 26 August 2026. The procurement was for one passenger transport route; no separate lots are identified. The published evaluation basis and any supplier eligibility requirements are not described in the available procurement details.

This award shows West Sussex County Council purchases dedicated accessible transport for an individual passenger travelling between Horsham and the Butterfly Project. A credible competitor for this requirement would need to provide a suitable accessible vehicle and reliably deliver a passenger service on the specified route. The selected supplier is a small business, demonstrating that this individual route was delivered by an SME. The council used a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, so suppliers seeking comparable work should be positioned to participate through that route. The requirement is narrow in scale and purpose: accessible transport for one passenger, rather than a broad fleet or general passenger transport service.
