Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Client Transport Services 2026 - 2034 - SEND" contract, led by Surrey County Council, has reached the award stage. This contract relates to transport services necessary for pupils with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) in the locations of Westerham and Lingfield, and falls under the services category with an emphasis on light-touch regimes. The procurement method used was limited, under a below-threshold limited competition approach. The key dates include the signing of the contract on 16th July 2026, with the service period commencing on 3rd September 2026 and concluding on 31st July 2027.

This contract offers significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in transport services and have experience in working with SEND. Given that Courtesy Cars Redhill Ltd has been awarded the contract, businesses in related fields may explore similar opportunities to provide transport services tailored to specific needs. The established relationship with Surrey County Council could pave the way for potential future collaborations for businesses that can deliver reliable and safe transport solutions for vulnerable groups within the specified regions.
