UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured child mainstream transport services for one pupil travelling to Knaphill Junior School in Woking. The route serves a pupil in Woking and requires a saloon vehicle, a passenger assistant and provision for a collapsible wheelchair. The work is passenger transport rather than vehicle supply alone, covering the safe and managed journey between the pupil’s home and school. The buying organisation is Surrey County Council, a local authority based in Reigate. The requirement is a focused, single-route service for a child with specific mobility and supervision needs, delivered in the Woking area and involving coordination between the transport operator, passenger assistant, pupil and school.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. Surrey County Council awarded the contract to STL. The award was made on 4 August 2026, and the contract was signed the same day. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. Its value is £3,495,000 gross. This is a light-touch services procurement covering one lot and one transport requirement. The selected supplier is STL, based in Woking. The contract is active, so this notice records an established award rather than a requirement seeking new bids. The procurement used a limited procedure rather than an open competition.

This requirement is relevant to passenger transport operators able to run regular school journeys for children and provide suitable supervision. A credible competitor would need an appropriate saloon vehicle, reliable local operating capacity around Woking, and a trained passenger assistant able to support a pupil throughout the journey. The ability to accommodate a collapsible wheelchair is central to the service, as is dependable attendance at the school and collection points. Experience of child transport, safeguarding-aware operations, route planning and working with schools or local authorities would strengthen a future response. Operators should also be able to manage a single dedicated route consistently and demonstrate that their vehicle and staff arrangements are suitable for the pupil’s needs.
