Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council has successfully completed the procurement process for "Client Transport Services 2026 - 2034 - SEND", which involves providing transport services for three pupils to Aurora Redehall School, located at RH6 9QA. The pupils reside in the GU14 and GU21 postcode areas. This procurement falls under the services category and was secured through a limited competition procurement method, specifically designed for contracts below the threshold. The process began with a tender notice and has now reached the award stage, with the contract officially signed on 4th August 2026. The contract is set to commence on 1st September 2026 and will run until 31st July 2029, with a total value of GBP 11,552,000.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses specializing in transport services, particularly those offering tailored solutions for special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). Companies that can provide reliable and efficient saloon vehicle services to specific educational institutions would be well-suited to such opportunities. Although the current contract has been awarded to County Cabs Limited, businesses in the transport services sector may benefit from engaging in similar procurement processes in the future or cater to growing demand in related areas. Being affiliated with a public authority like Surrey County Council also lends credibility and potential for continued collaboration.
