UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured client transport services for six pupils with special educational needs and disabilities travelling to Chertsey High School. The requirement is a single route using a medium multi-purpose vehicle with seven or eight seats. The service involves collecting passengers from five addresses in Staines and one address in Egham, and transporting them to the school. No specialist equipment is required. This is a passenger transport service rather than a vehicle supply or construction requirement, and delivery is centred on the Staines, Egham and Chertsey area in Surrey. The buyer is Surrey County Council, a sub-central public authority. The relevant service category is passenger transport services (CPV 60000000).

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to XPERT CARS, an SME, following a below-threshold limited competition. The award relates to the single route and the service category is transport. The contract was signed on 12 August 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027. Its gross value is £3,018.07. The published requirement describes the wider service title as Client Transport Services 2026–2034 – SEND, but the active contract period recorded for this award is one year. The process used the light-touch regime and limited procurement method. The selected supplier is responsible for providing the medium seven- to eight-seat vehicle and operating the specified school route.

This procurement demonstrates a requirement for dependable school transport for a small group of pupils with special educational needs and disabilities, using a seven- or eight-seat medium vehicle without specialist equipment. Suppliers well placed for similar work would have suitable passenger vehicles, the operational capacity to collect from multiple addresses, and the ability to provide reliable school journeys between Staines, Egham and Chertsey. Experience in contracted passenger transport and in serving education or SEND routes would help demonstrate credibility. Local knowledge of the pickup points and school journey, robust scheduling, safeguarding arrangements and dependable driver provision would also be commercially relevant when this buyer next assesses the same type of service.
