UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured specialist transport services for three pupils with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The requirement is for daily travel in a saloon vehicle to Aurora Redehall School, serving pupils who live in the CR3 postcode area. The work is a passenger transport service rather than vehicle supply or construction, with the journey requirement centred on transport between the pupils’ homes and the school. The buying organisation is Surrey County Council, a local public authority. Delivery is associated with the CR3 area and Aurora Redehall School in the RH6 9QA area. The procurement covers one defined requirement for this pupil transport service.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. Courtesy Cars Redhill Ltd was selected for the service on 4 August 2026, and the contract was signed the same day. The awarded contract value is £8,664,000 gross, including the stated value in GBP. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2029. It was treated as a light-touch services procurement and comprised one completed lot. The award is active and the contract is active. The source data identifies limited competition as the procurement method; it does not state a separate quality, price or weighting model. The selected supplier is a small or medium-sized enterprise based in Redhill.

This procurement demonstrates substantial, sustained demand from Surrey County Council for dedicated SEND pupil transport, focused on a defined home-to-school route and saloon-vehicle provision. Suppliers well placed for comparable requirements would be able to provide reliable passenger transport for children travelling to school, operate suitable saloon vehicles, and organise recurring journeys for pupils living in the CR3 area and attending Aurora Redehall School. Local operators serving Redhill and nearby Surrey communities may have practical knowledge of the route and journey logistics. Credibility for a future requirement would come from demonstrating the capacity to transport three pupils consistently, maintain suitable vehicles and manage a council-funded education transport service through a limited-competition procurement route.
