UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process managed by Surrey County Council, a sub-central government authority, involves the provision of Client Transport Services for special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) from Epsom to Epsom. The contract, which spans from 2026 to 2034, has reached the award stage as of 28th July 2026, with the active service period commencing on 1st September 2026 and concluding on 31st July 2027. This contract falls under the services category within the transport industry, specifically requiring a saloon vehicle for transporting one pupil. The procurement method utilised was limited competition due to it being below the threshold, with the overarching legal framework under UKPGA 2023/54.

This tender presents growth opportunities particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in transport services, as demonstrated by the involvement of Sonic Carz, an SME based in Epsom, as the awarded supplier. Businesses with a focus on reliable transport services, especially those adept at catering to specific needs such as SEND, are well-suited to compete in such procurement opportunities. Engaging in this contract could bolster a company's reputation in delivering specialised transport solutions and potentially open avenues for further contracts in public services.
