Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured child mainstream client transport services for Oxted School. The requirement covers transport for two pupils travelling between West Ewell and Oxted, via Redhill, with one saloon car and no personal assistant. This is a passenger transport service rather than a vehicle supply or education contract. The work is delivered along a defined school travel route serving locations in Surrey and the surrounding area. The council is the public-sector buyer and user of the service. The requirement is suited to operators able to provide reliable, appropriately managed journeys for school-age passengers, using a saloon car and operating the specified route between the home and school locations.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. It used a light-touch regime and comprised one completed requirement. HERTS AND LONDON MINICABS LIMITED LIMITED was selected as the supplier. The award was active and the contract was signed on 16 July 2026. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2029, with an awarded contract value of £8,816,000 gross in total. The requirement concerns transport services and was evaluated through the limited competition route. The award relates to the complete child mainstream transport service for Oxted School, covering the two-pupil saloon-car arrangement described above.

This award shows Surrey County Council’s demand for structured, school-focused passenger transport delivered on a specific route and tailored to a very small number of pupils. Suppliers well placed for comparable work would be established private-hire, minicab or community transport operators with the capacity to provide consistent school journeys using saloon cars, coordinate pick-up and drop-off arrangements across West Ewell, Redhill and Oxted, and manage service continuity throughout the school term. The requirement also demonstrates the value of being able to respond to below-threshold limited competitions and to price a clearly defined route rather than a broad network operation. Competitors should monitor this buyer’s future child transport requirements and be ready to evidence dependable local operating capacity for similar school travel services.
