Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Sutton, Achieving for Children and Kingston procured adult transport services for the Royal Borough of Kingston, under the title “Adults - Royal Borough of Kingston”. The requirement falls within transport services and concerns transporting adults in connection with Kingston’s local authority services. The buying organisation is Sutton, Achieving for Children and Kingston, based in Kingston upon Thames. The selected supplier, Zedcarz Limited, is a small or medium-sized transport business based in Surbiton. The procurement is therefore relevant to operators providing adult passenger transport and related transport management services in Kingston upon Thames and surrounding areas, particularly businesses able to work with a local authority buyer and deliver services through a structured public procurement process.

The procurement has reached the award stage and is marked complete. It used an open procedure, with nine bids recorded. Zedcarz Limited was selected for the adult transport requirement. The awarded contract value is £1,230, and the award and contract signing date was 15 September 2026. Evaluation was entirely price-based in the published weighting, although the criteria also listed quality areas covering attributes, client review, features, capability, qualifications and a custom metric. The sole lot is marked cancelled in the tender data, while the award and contract are recorded as active. The available outcome data therefore shows an active award and contract to Zedcarz Limited alongside a cancelled lot status.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Sutton, Achieving for Children and Kingston for adult transport delivered through a formal, open competition. The successful supplier profile indicates that a smaller specialist operator can compete for this type of local authority requirement. Businesses considering future work of this kind would need credible adult passenger transport capability, reliable operational delivery and the ability to demonstrate service features, capability and relevant qualifications. Evidence that supports a strong price submission would be particularly important, because price carried the full published evaluation weighting. Experience of working with public sector clients and presenting clear information for client review would also help establish credibility when this buyer next assesses a comparable adult transport requirement.
