Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by Surrey County Council for "Client Transport Services 2026 - 2034 - SEND" has progressed to the award stage, with the contract now active as of 4th August 2026. This transport service, designed for special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) students, connects Hopescourt School in Walton-On-Thames with students in Egham and Staines-upon-Thames. The procurement falls under the category of transport services and was conducted using a limited competition method, specifically under the "Below threshold - limited competition" classification. The contract spans from 2nd September 2026 to 31st July 2029, representing a gross value of £11,768,929, and has been awarded to Camberley Taxis. This initiative is regulated by UK legal frameworks set out in the legislation UKPGA 2023/54.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for growth, particularly for businesses equipped to offer specialised transport services in the educational sector. Companies such as Camberley Taxis, which possess significant operational scale and capacity to fulfil large passenger transport requirements, are particularly well-suited to competing in such tenders. Facilitating the mobility of SEND students alongside ensuring compliance with the light touch regime and transport standards, businesses pursuing such contracts have the potential to build lasting partnerships with governmental bodies. The transport needs associated with educational institutions provide recurrent procurement opportunities and strengthen the service providers' presence within the public service domain.
