Summary of the contracting process

The Surrey County Council has completed the procurement process titled "Client Transport Services 2026 - 2034 - SEND" focused on providing transport services for special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) from Epsom to Merrywood House Independent Special School in Wallington. This procurement falls under the industry category of Transport Services, excluding waste transport. The process reached the award stage on 21st July 2026, with the contract set to commence on 1st September 2026 and conclude on 31st July 2029. The procurement method used was limited competition, categorised under the light-touch regime, indicative of a specialised service below the threshold for extensive competition, with a total contract value of £6,688,000.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses specialised in transport services, particularly those accustomed to operating within the SEND framework. Subcentral government entities like Surrey County Council often have long-term and recurring service needs, which can lead to potential future collaborations for contracted suppliers. While this particular contract was awarded to a large supplier, Movr Limited, businesses of various scales with expertise or innovative solutions in client transport services, especially those adhering to the light-touch regime requirements, could find similar opportunities conducive to growth. The contract's significant value and multi-year term provide a stable revenue stream, beneficial for expanding market presence and building a track record in the public sector.
