UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured specialist client transport services for Fox Grove school’s special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) transport requirement. The service covers one pupil and one personal assistant, using a small multi-purpose vehicle with five or six passenger seats. The pupils live in the KT17 postcode area, so the operational requirement is focused on transport connected with that locality and the school. This is a passenger transport service rather than a vehicle supply or construction contract. Surrey County Council is the public-sector buyer. The requirement sits within the wider client transport services programme for SEND pupils, and involves providing suitable journeys for a school-aged passenger accompanied by a personal assistant.

The procurement is complete following a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. Surrey County Council awarded the contract to Nivo Mobility on 11 August 2026. The awarded contract value is £144,400 gross, including a single completed lot for the transport service. The contract was signed on 11 August 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2029. The contract is active. The award covers transport services for the Fox Grove school requirement, with one pupil, one personal assistant and a small five- or six-seat MPV. The selected supplier is Nivo Mobility, a small or medium-sized enterprise based in New Malden.

This procurement demonstrates a defined requirement for a small passenger transport operator serving SEND school travel around the KT17 area. A credible future competitor would need to provide a five- or six-seat MPV and organise transport for one pupil travelling with a personal assistant. Relevant capability is therefore likely to include dependable school transport operations, access to an appropriately sized vehicle and the ability to serve Surrey County Council’s local journey requirements. The awarded supplier is an SME, showing that the scale of this individual requirement can suit a smaller specialist operator rather than only a large transport company. Businesses with comparable local coverage and SEND transport experience should monitor this buyer’s related requirements.
