UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council, located at County Hall in Kingston upon Thames, has completed a public procurement process for 'Client Transport Services 2026 - 2034 - SEND'. This contract, aimed at providing transport services for special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), involves a route to Salfords Primary School and is set for the period from the 5th of May 2026 until the end of July 2026. With a total contract value of £447,429, the procurement falls under the services category of the Transport services industry in the United Kingdom. The procurement was conducted through a limited method, characterised by below-threshold competition, and concluded with an award status. Horley Cars Limited, a small to medium-sized enterprise (SME) based in Horley, was awarded the contract on the 1st of May 2026, marking the completion of the tender procedure.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in transport services, particularly those capable of catering to SEND requirements. Companies offering tailored transport solutions, especially in the educational sector, can utilise this contract as a platform for growth by showcasing their expertise in fulfilling specific requirements for local governmental bodies such as Surrey County Council. SMEs in the transport sector, similar to Horley Cars Limited, are especially well-suited to compete in such tender processes, given the competitive yet focused nature of the limited procurement method used. This contract confirms the willingness of local authorities to engage with smaller, regionally based businesses, fostering a diverse and competitive market environment.
