Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

This is a transport services contract for the London Borough of Richmond. The procurement title and description identify the borough but do not explain the specific transport service, passengers or journey requirements. Delivery is associated with the borough’s area. The named buyer is Sutton, Achieving for Children and Kingston, a local authority group. The opportunity is therefore relevant to transport operators serving this public-sector buyer and location, although the published scope gives little operational detail to judge the vehicles, routes or service model required.

The procurement is complete and a supplier has been selected. The buyer used an open procedure, with price carrying all stated evaluation weight. Ten bids were recorded. Herts and London Minicabs Limited was awarded the contract, and the contract is active. Its value is £5,181.43. The contract was signed on 2 October 2026; the award date and contract period are not stated. The procurement was organised as one lot, but that lot is marked cancelled while the award and contract are active, so the published outcome contains conflicting status information.

The award provides evidence that this buyer purchases transport services in the Richmond area and that a minicab operator has been selected for the work. A supplier seeking to compete for a comparable requirement would need to provide transport services and demonstrate a price-competitive offer: price was the sole stated award criterion. The recorded award to a minicab business indicates that this type of operator can be a credible supplier for the requirement. The published scope does not describe specific vehicle, passenger, route, staffing or qualification requirements, so it offers no basis for identifying more specialised capabilities. The value indicates a small-scale contract; operators whose costs and capacity suit work at that scale are the most relevant peers.
