UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, led by Surrey County Council, has reached the contract award stage for "Client Transport Services 2026 - 2034 - SEND". Specialising in transport services, this contract falls under the light touch regime and involves limited competition as it is below the threshold. With services set to commence on 7th September 2026, the initiative will facilitate transportation for SEND students, specifically one student each from Addlestone and Shepperton to The Rise School in Feltham. This procurement process has already advanced to the completion phase and has been awarded to Galaxy Cars, with a contract period running until 31st July 2028.

This tender presents opportunities for growth within the transport services sector, primarily benefitting small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that can offer efficient and reliable client transport solutions. Given the focus on SEND transport, businesses with experience in specialised, accessible transport services are particularly well-suited. Despite being a limited competition process, it's an excellent opportunity for businesses looking to establish or expand their presence in public sector transport contracts and to gain experience in providing vital community services.
