Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council procured a taxi service for Route 7409, carrying one passenger between Horsham and Burstow Park, Redhill Site. The requirement was for a vehicle with four seats. The buyer is based in Chichester, West Sussex; the named journey locations are Horsham and Burstow Park, Redhill. This is a passenger transport service rather than a purchase of vehicles. The requirement concerns a specific route and a single passenger, so it is suited to a provider able to deliver scheduled, individual transport between these locations.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to MY CARS SUSSEX LTD. The award date was 27 July 2026. The awarded value is £51,275. The contract period runs from 17 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. The route was procured as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, using a selective procedure. The original tender deadline was 3 August 2026 at midday. The stated requirement covered one passenger and a four-seat vehicle. The award information identifies the successful supplier but provides no evaluation criteria or scoring basis, so the basis on which competing offers were assessed cannot be described.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for passenger taxi transport on a council route between Horsham and Burstow Park, serving one passenger in a four-seat vehicle. A credible competitor for this buyer’s future requirement would need to provide dependable transport on that specific journey and have suitable vehicle capacity for individual passenger travel. The route is a focused service rather than a larger group-transport contract, making it relevant to taxi and local passenger transport operators able to cover the locations. The work was awarded through a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, so suppliers seeking similar council work should be positioned to compete through that route. The successful provider was identified as an SME.
