Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured client transport services for special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) passengers travelling to Egham Park School. The requirement covers two passengers in total: one travelling from Walton-on-Thames and one from Shepperton. A saloon car is required for the route. This is a passenger transport service rather than a vehicle supply or general fleet contract, and delivery involves collecting passengers from their home areas and taking them to the school. The buying organisation is Surrey County Council, a sub-central public authority in Surrey. The procurement falls within transport services, covering the provision of the vehicle and transport operation needed for this specific school journey.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to JJ Cars. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. The award was made on 13 August 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract is active from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. Its awarded value is £57,417.86 including gross value, in GBP. One supplier was selected for the single requirement. The contract title is Client Transport Services 2026–2034 – SEND, although the awarded contract period runs from September 2026 to July 2028. The selected supplier is JJ Cars, based in West Molesey.

This procurement shows demand for a small, dedicated SEND school transport operation serving Surrey County Council. A credible competitor would need to provide and operate a saloon car for a two-passenger route, with reliable collection from Walton-on-Thames and Shepperton and transport to Egham Park School. The requirement suits a focused local or regional passenger transport business able to manage a regular education journey rather than a large-scale bus operator. JJ Cars is identified as an SME, indicating that the scale and delivery model can be handled by a smaller transport provider. Relevant capability includes dependable route planning, suitable passenger transport provision and the capacity to maintain consistent service for the full contract term.
