Summary of the contracting process

Sutton, Achieving for Children and Kingston procured transport services for the London Borough of Sutton. The procurement describes the requirement only at this broad level; it does not identify vehicle types, passenger groups, routes or a more detailed service scope. The item is associated with Kingston upon Thames, the location recorded for delivery. The work falls within passenger and other transport services, rather than waste transport, and was procured as a services contract.

The procurement is recorded as complete and awarded to Rosehillcars, which holds the active award and contract. The contract was signed on 15 October 2026, with a recorded value of £1,727.14. The procurement used an open procedure and was evaluated on price: price carried all of the stated weighting, while the listed quality headings had zero weighting. The process was arranged as one lot, though that lot is marked cancelled while the award and contract are recorded as active. The data reports 27 bids for the lot. No contract start or end date is recorded, so the contract duration cannot be established.

For suppliers considering comparable transport work from Sutton, this award shows that the buyer used an open competition and selected on price alone, with 27 bids recorded. A credible competitor would therefore need to offer a sharply competitive price and demonstrate that it can deliver transport services reliably in the Kingston upon Thames area. The procurement provides no detail about vehicle specifications, routes, passenger needs, service levels, qualifications or required accreditations, so it cannot establish particular technical thresholds for future suppliers. Rosehillcars, identified as an SME, won this contract; this demonstrates that a smaller supplier was among the successful providers for this requirement, but does not by itself establish the capacity or experience needed for any later procurement.
