UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured specialist passenger transport services for three pupils with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The requirement covers a weekday school transport route from Godalming to Undershaw, GU26 6AQ, with travel required from Monday to Friday in a medium multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) with seven seats. The service sits within the wider category of passenger transport services and is focused on the safe, regular movement of pupils between their home area and the education setting. The named public-sector buyer is Surrey County Council. Delivery is centred on the Godalming and Undershaw route in Surrey, with the journey beginning in September 2026.

This procurement has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. The tender and lot are complete, and the award is active. Green line cars was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 3 August 2026 and has a value of £6,191,143, including gross value, in GBP. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. The process used the light-touch regime and a limited procurement method. One lot covered the transport requirement. The available outcome information identifies transport services as the main category; the procurement record does not set out a separate evaluation weighting or scoring basis.

This award indicates demand for established passenger transport operators able to deliver recurring weekday school journeys for pupils with SEND. A credible competitor would need access to a suitable medium seven-seat MPV, sufficient operational capacity for regular scheduled travel, and the ability to manage a dedicated route involving three pupils. Experience of school or assisted passenger transport would be commercially relevant, particularly where services require dependable attendance, careful passenger handling and consistent communication with the council. Local knowledge of Surrey, including the Godalming and Undershaw area, would support reliable planning and day-to-day delivery. The scale and duration of this award also indicate that suppliers should be able to sustain a substantial, council-managed service rather than provide occasional ad hoc journeys.
