Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council has completed a procurement process for the "Client Transport Services 2026 - 2034 - SEND" contract, focusing on student transport services. This procurement falls under the services industry category and is specifically related to transport services excluding waste transport. The procurement method employed was limited competition under a below-threshold regime. The contract, which spans from 1st September 2026 to 31st July 2028, is valued at approximately £9,486,429. The procurement process reached the award stage, with Nivo Mobility being selected as the supplier. The Council is located in Kingston upon Thames, while the services are to be executed primarily in the regions of Ashford and Staines, starting in September 2026.

This contract presents substantial business growth opportunities for companies specialising in transport services, particularly those experienced in providing tailored solutions for client transport needs, such as student mobility in car seats or booster seats. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can offer medium passenger vehicle (MPV) services and hire personal assistants for route harmony would find this opportunity well-suited to their capabilities. With Surrey County Council as the contracting authority, businesses can enhance their credentials by partnering with a reputable public authority and securing a long-term service contract.
