Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council procured taxi transport for the WSCC Route 20039 school route serving Yapton, Woodgate (two routes) and Chichester to St Anthony’s School. The requirement is for passenger transport by taxi, with delivery associated with Chichester and the named route locations in West Sussex. The service is intended to carry passengers on this specific school route; the procurement description does not set out further vehicle, journey or passenger requirements.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to 24X7 West Sussex Limited. The award was made on 12 August 2026 for £79,729.20. The contract period runs from 19 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. The estimated tender value was also £79,729.20. The council used a selective procedure, as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The deadline for submissions was 5 August 2026 at 12:00. No lot split or evaluation criteria are stated in the available process details.

This award demonstrates demand from West Sussex County Council for taxi transport on a defined school route linking Yapton, Woodgate and Chichester with St Anthony’s School. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to provide dependable passenger transport across the named locations and organise service delivery to meet the needs of a school route. The selected supplier was a small or medium-sized business, indicating that this scale of work has been delivered by an SME. The purchasing route was a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, so suppliers seeking similar council work should be positioned to compete through that route and capable of operating a specific, local passenger transport service.
