Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council has completed the procurement process for "Client Transport Services 2026 - 2034 - SEND," specifically targeting special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) transport, under a limited competition procurement method. The process falls under the "services" category and operates in the UK, particularly between Caterham and New Malden. The award was made to Street Cars Redhill Ltd on 29th July 2026, with the contract set to commence on 1st September 2026 and conclude on 31st July 2027. The value of the contract is £3,092,143, highlighting the importance of this procurement for local transport services.

This procurement provides significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in transport services, especially those experienced with SEND transportation. Smaller enterprises, such as SMEs, that have the ability to manage and operate within niche service areas like pupil transport could find lucrative opportunities in such tenders. As the contract was awarded via a limited competition under the "lightTouch" regime, similar businesses with a presence or capacity to operate in the specified UK regions might forecast potential opportunities by observing this procurement’s specifications and approach.
