UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured client transport services for two pupils with special educational needs travelling to Philip Southcote School. The requirement covers a saloon-car route, with one pupil travelling full time and the other travelling from two different addresses on specified morning and afternoon journeys during the week. The same daily price was requested because the mileage is broadly similar between the two addresses. No special equipment is required. The work is delivered in connection with Philip Southcote School and involves transport associated with pupils travelling from addresses in the surrounding area. This is a passenger transport service rather than a vehicle supply or transport infrastructure project, and is relevant to operators providing reliable school or assisted passenger journeys.

This completed below-threshold procurement used a limited competition under the light-touch regime. The single requirement was awarded to ANGEL CARS (WOKING) LTD. The contract was signed on 7 August 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. Its gross value is £42,938.57 including applicable taxes. The procurement reached completion with one active award and one active contract. The evaluation was conducted through the limited-competition route, and the requirement formed one lot. The tender description states that TUPE may apply, so suppliers assessing the operating model would need to review the associated TUPE information and account for any staff-transfer implications in their planning and pricing.

This award demonstrates demand from Surrey County Council for scheduled, small-scale SEND passenger transport to a named school, using a saloon vehicle and serving pupils with differing weekly travel patterns. Suppliers best placed for comparable work would be established local or regional private-hire, taxi or passenger-transport operators able to provide dependable school journeys, manage multiple collection addresses and maintain consistent morning and afternoon service. Credibility would depend on suitable vehicles and drivers, robust safeguarding and safeguarding-related operating procedures, punctuality, continuity for pupils and clear route planning. Operators should also be able to assess whether TUPE obligations apply and manage any resulting workforce requirements. The requirement indicates that practical service reliability and the ability to handle low-volume, recurring routes are important.
