Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council procured a passenger transport service for route 60129, carrying passengers from Pulborough to Homefield Infant. The requirement is for a five-seat multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) with one passenger assistant (PA). This is a school journey service rather than a general taxi requirement, so suppliers need to be able to provide the specified vehicle and accompanying assistant for the route. The service is categorised as passenger transport. The buyer is West Sussex County Council, based in Chichester.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Lemon Tech Solutions Limited. The award was made on 6 August 2026 for £45,620.47. The contract period runs from 13 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. The council used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender submission deadline was 30 July 2026. The requirement was a single route service; the published information does not set out separate lots or evaluation criteria.

This award demonstrates demand from West Sussex County Council for a dedicated school passenger route using a five-seat MPV and one passenger assistant. Suppliers best placed to compete when this requirement returns will be able to provide the specified vehicle and reliably resource an assistant alongside the journey service. The existing contract was awarded through a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, so suppliers seeking similar council work should be prepared to compete through that route. The contract was awarded to an SME, indicating that this requirement has been deliverable by a small or medium-sized supplier.
