UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council, a sub-central government public authority based in Kingston upon Thames, has completed the procurement process for a contract titled "Client Transport Services 2026 - 2034 - SEND," geared towards the transport of one student from Holland Junior School in Caterham. The contract cycle runs from 18th June 2026 to 31st July 2027, focusing on transport services within the scope of special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). This procurement, processed through a limited tender method for below-threshold values, is part of a light-touch regime, emphasising limited competition. The contract was awarded to AA Mobility Services, a large-scale supplier located in Crawley, and the award was made active as of 16th June 2026, highlighting the efficiency of Surrey County Council in their procurement operations. The service includes transport on Thursdays and Fridays, with a potential extension to three days per week.

This procurement presents an opportunity for businesses within the transport sector, particularly those specialising in SEND-focused services. The limited competition indicates potential for suppliers offering tailored transport solutions to expand their portfolio and gain governmental contracts. Businesses with expertise in light-touch regime contracts or those experienced in catering to the public sector and educational institutions might find ample room for growth. Companies looking to secure such contracts should focus on demonstrating compliance with specific service requirements and leveraging their capacity for specialised transport solutions to meet the needs of educational authorities like Surrey County Council. Additionally, tapping into the sector's nuances in handling tailored, safety-conscious transport services could position businesses advantageously for similar future tenders.
