Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured client transport services for two pupils with special educational needs attending Eastwick Junior School. The service transports the pupils between their locations in Redhill and Leatherhead and the school in Leatherhead. It requires one saloon car with four passenger seats and does not require a passenger assistant. This is a passenger transport service rather than a vehicle supply or construction requirement. The work is local to Surrey, involving school transport between Redhill and Leatherhead. Businesses with experience providing reliable, scheduled transport for children and young people, particularly on school journeys, are the most relevant potential competitors when this requirement next reaches the market.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a below-threshold limited competition. It used a limited procurement procedure under the light-touch regime and was divided into one completed lot. Swyft Executive Ltd was awarded the contract, which was signed on 30 July 2026. The contract runs from 3 September 2026 to 31 July 2029 and is valued at £8,183,469 gross. The award covers the transport service for the two pupils and the single saloon-car requirement. The contracting process has therefore moved beyond tendering: Surrey County Council has selected the supplier and holds an active contract for delivery during the stated period.

This award demonstrates substantial, recurring demand from Surrey County Council for contracted SEND school transport, delivered through a local route between Redhill and Leatherhead. A credible competitor for the same requirement would need to organise dependable daily school journeys, provide a suitable saloon car with sufficient passenger capacity, and manage transport for two pupils without relying on a passenger assistant. Relevant operational strength includes route planning, punctual collection and drop-off, vehicle availability, safeguarding-focused passenger transport and continuity throughout school terms. Local knowledge of Surrey roads and the Redhill and Leatherhead area would support delivery. The requirement suits established passenger transport operators able to commit vehicle and scheduling capacity over a multi-year service period.
