Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council bought taxi transport for school-phase travel on route 53508, from Billingshurst to St Piers. The requirement is for a vehicle with four seats and one pass. This is a passenger transport service, with the route and named stops defining the work. The procurement is associated with West Sussex, including Billingshurst and St Piers; the council is based in Chichester.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to EZY GATWICK LTD on 12 August 2026. It was a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The award value is £57,587.50. The contract runs from 19 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. The tender deadline was 5 August 2026 at 12:00. The requirement was treated as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses. The recorded procurement information does not state how bids were evaluated.

This award shows demand from West Sussex County Council for a defined school transport service: taxi provision on a Billingshurst-to-St Piers route, with capacity for four seats and one pass. A credible competitor for this specific requirement would need to be able to provide a vehicle and deliver the route-based school journey. The council used a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, so suppliers seeking comparable work would need to be positioned to compete through that route. The procurement was marked as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses.
