Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council has completed the procurement process for "Client Transport Services 2026 - 2034 - SEND". The buying organisation, located in Kingston upon Thames, has awarded a contract for transportation services covering specific travel routes from Addlestone to Dorking, with service times aligning with school hours from 9:00 to 12:00. This procurement, tagged under the services category, utilises a limited procurement method targeting requirements for special needs transport (SEND), and the related legal basis is the UKPGA 2023/54 legislation. The contract period commenced on 29th June 2026 and will run until 30th July 2027, articulating a gross value of £3,309,429.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities, particularly for businesses engaged in delivering transport services. Given the nature of the requirement, large transportation providers like MM CARS, already awarded the contract, are well-suited due to their capacity to manage consistent and specialised route services. Enterprises looking to expand in public sector agreements, especially those offering tailored and reliable transport solutions under the lightTouch regime, would find such contracts beneficial for steady business growth and market presence. The procurement process highlights a potential field for companies interested in fostering partnerships and extending their services within regulated transport frameworks.
