Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council has completed a procurement process for "Client Transport Services 2026 - 2034 - SEND", with the goal of providing transport for students to West Ewell Primary School. The buying organisation, located in Reigate, UK, is a sub-central government authority. The procurement process was at the Award stage as of 6th August 2026. The contract, valued at £98,800, is set to run from 1st September 2026 to 31st July 2029. This service falls under the 'services' procurement category, and the tender was conducted through a limited competition method, categorized as 'Below threshold - limited competition', which entailed a specific regime of light touch procedures in the transport services industry.

This contract presents valuable growth opportunities for businesses operating within the transportation and school transport sectors, particularly those specialising in transportation for special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) students. The successful award was made to Sonic Carz, a small or medium-sized enterprise (SME) located in Epsom, United Kingdom. Companies that can offer tailored transport services with vehicles like medium multipurpose vehicles (MPVs) may find similar future opportunities in collaborating with local authorities on similar transport needs. Such contracts are especially suited for SMEs that ensure compliance with regulatory transport requirements and can provide specialised services.
