Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Sutton, Achieving for Children and Kingston procured transport services for a requirement associated with the London Borough of Sutton. The published scope is described only as transport services, excluding waste transport, with the procurement classified under CPV 60000000. The buyer is a regional or local authority based in Kingston upon Thames, and the named supplier is based in Horley. The requirement was arranged as a single transport-services lot. The available description does not identify the passengers, routes, vehicles, operating model or specific delivery sites, so businesses should compare their own transport-service capabilities with the underlying requirement before drawing detailed conclusions about fit.

This procurement has reached the awarded stage. It used an open procedure under the 2014 EU public procurement legal basis and was evaluated on price, recorded as 100%, alongside quality headings covering attributes, client review, features, capability, qualifications and a custom metric. Nineteen bids were recorded for the lot. The lot itself is marked cancelled, but the award to St Joseph’s Travels Ltd is active and the related contract is active. The contract value is £39,960. The contract was signed on 25 July 2026. The award and contract relate to the single transport-services lot; no separate award values or contract periods are provided.

This outcome indicates demand from Sutton, Achieving for Children and Kingston for transport services supplied through an open, price-led competition. A credible future competitor would need to provide transport operations that can satisfy the buyer’s stated quality considerations, including service attributes, client review, features, capability and staff qualifications, while remaining competitive on price. Evidence of reliable delivery, relevant transport experience, suitable qualified personnel and a clear approach to client feedback would help demonstrate capability. The successful supplier is recorded as an SME, showing that the requirement was not limited to large businesses. Transport operators and smaller specialist providers with the capacity to meet the buyer’s operational needs are the most relevant comparators.
