UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council, as the buying organisation, has completed the procurement process for the "Client Transport Services 2026 - 2034 - SEND" contract. The services are categorised under transport services, specifically tailored for the Eastwick Junior School in Leatherhead. This tender process, which followed a limited procurement method due to being below threshold, required service provision for transporting a student from Dorking to Leatherhead. The procurement stage is now in the award phase, with Leatherhead Taxis successfully contracted, as of 30th July 2026. The contract is valued at £2,470,679 and is expected to commence on 3rd September 2026, concluding on 31st July 2027.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities for SMEs specialising in transport services. The contract, awarded under the light touch regime, is well-suited for businesses with the capability to provide specialised transport solutions, particularly those focusing on educational and service sectors. Leatherhead-based companies or those in close proximity, equipped with the necessary fleet and personnel, are ideally positioned to compete and deliver similar services in future procurement tenders issued by local authorities or educational establishments. Businesses looking to expand in public sector contracts could significantly benefit from such opportunities.
