## Summary

West Sussex County Council procured a regular taxi transport service on route 7198, carrying passengers from Chichester to Littlegreen Academy. The requirement is for a four-seat vehicle, with no passenger assistant provided. This is a passenger transport service rather than a vehicle purchase, and the stated journey connects Chichester with the academy. The buying organisation is West Sussex County Council, based in Chichester. The service is intended to provide scheduled travel on this specific route; the route description and seating requirement define the operational scope. The work is located in the Chichester area of West Sussex.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to PRODRIVE TRAVEL LTD. The award was made on 18 August 2026, for £27,622.10. The contract period runs from 25 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. The council used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The original bid deadline was 11 August 2026 at 12:00. The requirement is presented as one route rather than separate lots. Evaluation criteria are not included in the available process information, so the recorded outcome identifies the selected supplier but does not establish how bids were scored or ranked. The award is active, and the overall tender status is complete.

For suppliers considering similar future demand from West Sussex County Council, this award demonstrates a requirement for a regular, dedicated school transport route serving Littlegreen Academy from Chichester. A credible competitor would need to provide a four-seat taxi service reliably on the specified journey, without relying on a passenger assistant as part of the service. The requirement is route-specific and limited in scale compared with a multi-route transport contract. PRODRIVE TRAVEL LTD, recorded as a small or medium-sized enterprise, was selected for this service, showing that a smaller operator can deliver the requirement. Experience organising regular passenger journeys and having suitable vehicle capacity would therefore be directly relevant when this buyer next sources the same type of transport service.
