Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council has successfully completed the contracting process for the "Client Transport Services 2026 - 2034 - SEND" project. This project is focussed on providing transport services for a special educational needs and disability route, specifically requiring a saloon car to transport one passenger from Guildford to the Imber Court Sports Ground. This service is scheduled for Mondays and Fridays, from 10:00 to 14:00. The procurement was conducted using a limited method, falling below the competitive threshold, as per UK procurement regulation 2023/54. The contract was awarded on 14 July 2026 and is set to run from 5 June 2026 to 31 July 2026, with an active status. The industry category for this project is transport services, and the procurement falls under a "lightTouch" regime, indicating specific procedural flexibility.

This contract presents growth opportunities for businesses specialising in transport services, particularly those catering to special needs logistics. Given the specialised nature of the transportation required, companies with experience in providing accessible and reliable passenger transport services stand to benefit significantly. Large organisations like 'iconnectcar', the awarded supplier, illustrate the potential for substantial business development within niche transport service sectors, enabling them to leverage expertise and expand their portfolios in government contracts involving special passenger needs. Such opportunities can be especially lucrative for firms that can offer tailored services below competitive procurement thresholds.
