## Summary

West Sussex County Council procured a passenger transport service for one passenger travelling on Route 30012 from East Grinstead to Woodlands Meed School, without a passenger assistant. The requirement is classified as taxi services and falls within the services category. The route is associated with West Sussex and the South East of England. It is a council transport requirement rather than a general taxi framework: the service is tied to a named school journey and a single passenger. The selected supplier is Alpha Cars, based in Crawley, indicating that the council used a local or regional taxi operator for this specific school transport route.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Alpha Cars on 29 July 2026. The contract runs from 5 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its awarded value is £39,248.20 including the stated GBP currency. The tender deadline was 22 July 2026 at 12:00. West Sussex County Council used a selective procedure, specifically a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, rather than an open standalone tender. The award is active. The published requirement covers one passenger and one route; the procurement data does not identify separate lots. The opportunity was assessed through the dynamic purchasing system call-off process.

This award demonstrates recurring demand from West Sussex County Council for contracted home-to-school passenger transport on defined routes. It is most relevant to established taxi and specialist passenger transport operators able to provide reliable, safeguarded transport for an individual school passenger without a passenger assistant. Businesses would need the operational capacity to cover a fixed journey between East Grinstead and Woodlands Meed School, maintain dependable day-to-day service, and meet the council’s requirements for participation in its dynamic purchasing system. The successful supplier was a taxi operator, so firms with comparable local coverage, suitable vehicles, experienced drivers and the administrative capability to operate through a council purchasing system would be well placed when a similar requirement returns.
