Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Sutton, Achieving for Children and Kingston procured transport services for the Royal Borough of Kingston, with delivery in Kingston upon Thames. The requirement is classified as transport services excluding waste transport and sits within the services category. The buying organisation is a local authority grouping based in Kingston upon Thames. The procurement was arranged as a single requirement associated with the Royal Borough of Kingston, rather than describing separate transport service types or delivery areas. The selected supplier, Nivo Mobility, is based in New Malden and is recorded as a small or medium-sized enterprise. The opportunity therefore relates to businesses providing passenger or other non-waste transport services for a local public-sector buyer in and around Kingston upon Thames.

The procurement is complete and an award was made to Nivo Mobility on 21 September 2026. The active contract was signed on the same date for £3,100. The procurement used an open procedure under the public procurement rules, with the award evaluated on price and quality. Price carried the stated weighting of 100, while the quality areas covered attributes, client review, features, capability, qualifications and a custom metric. Ten bids were recorded for the requirement. The contracting information links the award and contract to the Royal Borough of Kingston lot, whose tender status is recorded as cancelled, while the award and resulting contract are recorded as active. The contract is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement.

This procurement indicates a local authority requirement for transport services that attracted ten bids, with the selected supplier recorded as an SME. A credible competitor for a future requirement from this buyer would need to provide reliable transport delivery in Kingston upon Thames and demonstrate capability against the service specification. Evidence of relevant qualifications, service features, positive client reviews and performance against stated attributes would support the quality case. Because price was the decisive stated evaluation basis, suppliers would also need tight cost control and a clear, competitive pricing model. The successful supplier’s SME status suggests that the requirement can be delivered by a focused specialist rather than only by a large national transport operator. Experience serving public-sector clients would help substantiate capability and client-review evidence.
