UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured specialist client transport services for Fox Grove school under its SEND transport programme. The requirement covers transport for two pupils living in the KT19 postcode area, with one passenger assistant to support the journey. The service uses a medium-sized passenger vehicle with six to seven seats. This is a passenger transport service rather than vehicle supply, construction or general logistics. Delivery is centred on transporting the pupils between their homes in the KT19 area and Fox Grove school. Businesses with suitable passenger transport operations and the ability to provide a vehicle and passenger assistant would find the requirement relevant.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a below-threshold limited competition. Surrey County Council awarded the contract to Nivo Mobility on 12 August 2026. The active contract is valued at £136,800 gross and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2029. It covers one requirement for the Fox Grove school SEND transport service. The procurement used the light-touch regime and the main category was transport services. The contract was signed on 12 August 2026. The selected supplier is Nivo Mobility, a small or medium-sized enterprise. The outcome demonstrates a direct award following a limited competitive process, rather than an open procedure.

This award shows a focused requirement for accessible, dependable school transport serving a small number of SEND pupils, rather than a large fleet operation. A credible future competitor would need experience delivering passenger transport for children or other vulnerable passengers, reliable journey planning around school attendance, and the operational capacity to provide a medium passenger vehicle with six to seven seats. It would also need to provide a suitable passenger assistant alongside the vehicle and manage regular home-to-school journeys in the KT19 area. Smaller transport businesses may be well placed for this scale, particularly those able to combine vehicle availability, trained staff and consistent day-to-day service delivery.
