Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured client transport services for special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) pupils attending Oakfield Junior School. The requirement is school transport for three students travelling from Epsom and Ashtead to the school in Leatherhead. It calls for one saloon car with four passenger seats and no passenger assistant. The journey locations are one student in Epsom KT17, one in Epsom KT18 and one in Ashtead KT21, with the destination in Leatherhead KT22. One student travels only on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday mornings, so the service includes a reduced mileage arrangement for that part of the route. The procurement category is transport services.

This procurement has been completed and awarded through a below-threshold limited competition. The single lot is complete, and the contract was awarded to YNR cars, an SME, with an active contract signed on 10 August 2026. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2029 and has a gross value of £74,860. The requirement was treated as a light-touch service procurement. The award covers transport services for the single school route and the contract is below the relevant threshold. The published information identifies the successful supplier and contract outcome, but does not set out a separate award date or detailed scoring criteria.

This procurement demonstrates a defined requirement for dependable SEND school transport involving individual home-to-school journeys across Epsom, Ashtead and Leatherhead. A credible competitor for a future requirement from Surrey County Council would need suitable saloon vehicle capacity, the ability to carry several pupils safely without a passenger assistant, and reliable coverage of scheduled morning journeys. Operational planning would need to accommodate different pupil locations, a single school destination and a part-week travel pattern, including mileage adjusted to reflect the student who travels only on selected mornings. Relevant suppliers are local or regional passenger transport operators able to provide consistent school-run service and manage route-specific arrangements for vulnerable children.
