Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council has completed the procurement process for "Client Transport Services 2026 - 2034 - SEND," aimed at providing transport services for special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The procurement, which was managed under a limited competition method below the threshold, involves services for transporting pupils to Woodlands School in locations including Woking and Leatherhead. The contract, awarded to STL, a large supplier, covers the period from 1st September 2026 to 31st July 2027. The project falls under the light-touch regime with a focus on transport services, as classified within the CPV code 60000000. The contractual agreement was facilitated by Surrey County Council, led by contact Keith Baxter-Russell, and was signed on 3rd August 2026.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses involved in the provision of transport services, particularly those familiar with SEND requirements. With a gross value of £4,638,214, the contract offers a lucrative venture for large-scale service providers capable of supplying multiple passenger vehicles (MPVs) and ensuring appropriate support for pupil behaviour management. Enterprises with a strong logistical and operational presence within the Reigate and surrounding areas will find this contract especially fitting, as the services require efficient local arrangements to fulfil the council’s specific needs in pupil transport and support.
