Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council has awarded a contract for "Client Transport Services 2026 - 2034 - SEND", specifically focusing on providing saloon car transport service for a single passenger from Woking to Kennel Lane School. This procurement falls under the industry category of transport services and is part of a limited competition, below the threshold with a light-touch regime. The contract, finalised on 5th August 2026 and effective from 1st September 2026 to 31st July 2029, has been awarded to Traveline Transport Services, highlighting a targeted procurement within the Reigate, UKJ26 region. With an overall contract value of £6,688,000, this process was completed during the award and contract stages.

This procurement offers significant opportunities for businesses involved in transport services. Companies that specialise in niche transport offerings, particularly those catering to special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), can gain new business and enhance market presence by participating in similar tenders. The emphasis on limited competition means that smaller enterprises, such as Traveline Transport Services, can successfully engage and secure valuable government contracts, providing a strategic pathway for growth within the public sector transport industry.
