Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council has completed the procurement process titled "SEND" under the category of Transport Services, excluding Waste Transport. This contract focuses on providing services within the United Kingdom, particularly the UKG13 region. The open procedure method was employed, covered by the Government Procurement Agreement (GPA), leading to the award being signed on 26th March 2026. The procurement involved six bids, ultimately awarding the contract, valued at £10,900, to the supplier Galaxy Cars. The process reached the contract stage just after the award on the same date, with the procurement being part of the general public services sector.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for service providers in the transport industry, specifically those offering inclusive and SEND-focused (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) transport solutions. Small and medium-sized enterprises with the capability to deliver quality transport services and competitive pricing are well-positioned to compete for such contracts. With quality aspects such as Attributes, Client Review, and Features forming key award criteria alongside pricing considerations, businesses able to excel in both service quality and cost-efficiency are likely to benefit from participating in such procurement processes.
