UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured specialist client transport services for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The requirement is a passenger transport service using a small MPV, carrying three students: one from Chobham, one from West End and one from Knaphill, to Elysian Farm in Shamley Green. No passenger assistant is required. The service is a single route within Surrey, connecting the named collection locations with the destination. The procurement is categorised as transport services (CPV 60000000). It is intended to provide reliable, regular travel for the named students rather than general public transport or a wider fleet operation.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. Green line cars was awarded the single requirement on 29 July 2026, with an active contract signed the same day. The contract is valued at £6,336,000 gross, in total, and runs from 7 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. The route was due to start on 7 September 2026. The procurement used a limited procedure, with the competition restricted to invited suppliers. The outcome relates to one completed lot and one selected supplier; no separate lot or award values are reported.

This requirement is relevant to passenger transport operators able to provide a small MPV and deliver consistent school or education-related journeys for SEND passengers. Credible competitors would need dependable vehicles, robust route planning and the operational capacity to collect students from Chobham, West End and Knaphill and transport them to Shamley Green. The awarded supplier is recorded as an SME, indicating that the service can be delivered by a smaller specialist operator rather than only a large transport business. Experience of scheduled assisted or accessible passenger transport, safeguarding expectations and reliable daily performance would strengthen a future response to this buyer’s comparable requirement.
