Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured specialist passenger transport services for three passengers with special educational needs travelling to Woking High School. The requirement covers a saloon-car journey from West Molesey to Woking, under the Client Transport Services 2026–2034 programme. The work is a passenger transport service rather than the supply of vehicles or general school transport. Delivery is focused on the specified route into Woking High School, serving passengers travelling from West Molesey. Surrey County Council is the public-sector buyer. The requirement sits within the transport services category and concerns the safe, regular movement of a small number of passengers to and from their education setting.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. It used a limited procedure under the light-touch regime and comprised one lot. Angel Cars (Woking) Ltd was awarded the contract on 4 August 2026, and the contract was signed the same day. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2029. Its value is £7,980,000 gross. The award is active and the contract is active. The published outcome identifies Angel Cars (Woking) Ltd as the selected supplier for the transport service. The evaluation was carried out through the limited competition route; the available procurement information does not set out separate quality, price or technical weightings.

This award indicates demand from Surrey County Council for dedicated SEND passenger transport linking residential areas with individual schools. A credible future competitor would need to provide reliable saloon-car transport for education journeys, plan and operate the West Molesey–Woking route, and support the safe movement of three passengers on a regular basis. Relevant strengths would include dependable vehicle availability, experienced drivers, robust journey planning, punctual school arrivals and suitable safeguarding arrangements for children or young people with special educational needs. Local knowledge of Woking and West Molesey would help with route delivery and resilience. The buyer’s use of a below-threshold limited competition also shows a route suited to established transport operators able to respond to a focused, buyer-defined service requirement.
