Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council has completed the procurement process for "Client Transport Services 2026 - 2034 - SEND," focusing on Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) transport. The procurement falls under the transport services category and is specific to the West Hill Primary School situated in Leatherhead. The tender covered service needs for five students commuting from Guildford, requiring a large multipurpose vehicle and a personal assistant trained in first aid and asthma awareness. The procurement was carried out using a limited competition method due to its below-threshold value, with the contract commencing on 2nd September 2026 and concluding on 31st July 2028, and has a total value of £13,212,143.

This tender represents a notable opportunity for businesses specialising in transport services, particularly those experienced in providing specialised transport solutions for educational institutions. Businesses like SMEs that can meet the specific logistic and care requirements outlined in the tender, including vehicle capacity and specialized personnel, would find this an ideal contract to pursue. Given the size and duration of the contract, it could allow a capable company to expand its service portfolio and establish a strong presence in the educational sector within the region. Companies already operating in Surrey, such as Courtesy Cars Redhill Ltd, who won this contract, exemplify the type of business well-suited to engage in such competitive opportunities.
