UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured client transport services for a special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) journey connected with Great Oaks College and Windmill House. The requirement was for a saloon car carrying one pupil between the specified Windmill House address on Windmill Road, Sunbury-on-Thames, and the education setting. This is a passenger transport service rather than a vehicle supply, construction or general logistics contract. The procurement falls within transport services, excluding waste transport. The buyer is Surrey County Council, a sub-central public authority. The named service location is Sunbury-on-Thames, Surrey, with the requirement focused on an individual pupil journey and the associated client transport provision.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 29 July 2026 and awarded to STL. The award is active, and the contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £2,509,393. The process used a light-touch regime and covered one requirement for the SEND transport service. The recorded procurement method was limited competition. The available outcome information identifies STL as the selected supplier for the transport service. The contract is active rather than cancelled or terminated, and Surrey County Council remains the contracting authority for the requirement.

This requirement is relevant to passenger transport operators able to provide dependable, individualised SEND journeys for a local authority. A credible competitor would need to organise a saloon-car service for a single pupil, deliver consistently to the specified education and residential locations, and manage the practical requirements of client transport over a school-year service period. The awarded supplier was recorded as a large organisation, indicating that the buyer accepted a provider with the capacity to undertake a substantial public-sector transport commitment, despite the specific journey involving one pupil. Businesses with established operational control, suitable vehicles, reliable driver provision and experience delivering sensitive school or passenger transport services would be well placed to assess similar future requirements from Surrey County Council.
