Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council procured a taxi service for one passenger, with four seats available and no passenger assistant, on route 1682 from Chichester to APC Worthing. This is a passenger transport service, rather than a general taxi contract. The stated delivery locations include Chichester and the South East of England. The requirement is for a single route and passenger, so it is suited to operators able to provide the specified journey and vehicle capacity.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to ACE TAXIS WEST SUSSEX LTD. The award was made on 11 August 2026, following a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The contract value is £26,940.48. The contract period runs from 18 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. The original tender deadline was 4 August 2026. The process records one requirement and one selected supplier; no evaluation criteria are stated in the published procurement information.

This award demonstrates demand from West Sussex County Council for dedicated, single-passenger taxi transport on a route between Chichester and APC Worthing. The requirement is narrow in scope: credible providers need to serve this journey reliably and supply a vehicle with four seats, while meeting the stated no-passenger-assistant arrangement. The selected supplier is recorded as an SME, and the procurement was conducted as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, indicating that experience participating in such a system may be commercially relevant to competing for this buyer’s similar transport requirements. Taxi operators with suitable local coverage and capacity for a regular passenger journey are best aligned with the work.
