Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

This procurement covered transport services for the London Borough of Richmond, with delivery in the Kingston upon Thames area. The named buying organisation is Sutton, Achieving for Children and Kingston, a regional or local authority. The requirement was arranged as a single transport-services lot, covering the buyer’s stated need for transport provision rather than goods, construction or waste transport. The selected supplier, Kingston Minicabs Cars, is based in London and is identified as a small or medium-sized enterprise. The procurement therefore concerns local passenger or general transport service capability, with delivery activity centred on the Kingston area and a public-sector buyer operating across Sutton, Achieving for Children and Kingston.

The procurement has reached completion. It used an open procedure, with 19 bids recorded for the lot. The lot is marked cancelled, while the associated award is active and was made to Kingston Minicabs Cars on 30 July 2026. The contract was signed on 30 July 2026 and has a value of £3,011.43. Evaluation placed 100% of the stated weighting on price; quality criteria covered attributes, client review, features, capability, qualifications and a custom metric. The award and contract relate to the single transport-services lot. The contracting process was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. The outcome identifies Kingston Minicabs Cars as the selected supplier for the requirement.

For a supplier assessing comparable future demand from this buyer, the award shows a requirement that can be served by a small or medium-sized transport business operating locally. Credibility would depend on delivering reliable transport services in the Kingston upon Thames area, with the operational capability, relevant staff qualifications and service features needed to satisfy the buyer’s quality checks. The evaluation structure indicates that price was decisive in this procurement, so a competitor would need tight cost control as well as a clear, dependable service offer. The buyer also considered capability, client review and attributes, suggesting that evidence of service performance and practical delivery arrangements would support future competition for the same type of requirement.
