UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured passenger transport services for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The requirement covered transport to Worplesdon Primary School using a saloon car, with two pupils travelling: one from Godalming and one from Guildford. A passenger assistant was not required. The work falls within general transport services (CPV 60000000) and is delivered between the pupils’ home locations and the school. This is a single, school-specific client transport requirement rather than a wider fleet or passenger transport operation. It would suit a provider able to organise and deliver individual or shared school journeys for SEND pupils using an appropriate saloon vehicle.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. Surrey County Council selected TSM PREMIER CARS for the requirement. The award was made on 14 August 2026 and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract is active from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2027, with a gross value of £19,028.57. The award and contract relate to one requirement covering the transport service described. The published outcome records TSM PREMIER CARS as the successful supplier; no separate evaluation weighting or award criteria are stated in the procurement data.

This requirement demonstrates demand from Surrey County Council for dedicated SEND school transport using a saloon car, without a passenger assistant. Competitors would need to provide a suitable saloon vehicle and reliably manage journeys involving pupils from Godalming and Guildford to Worplesdon Primary School. Credibility would depend on being able to coordinate school-day transport for two pupils, maintain dependable collection and delivery arrangements, and operate effectively within a small, route-specific service. The awarded supplier is recorded as a large business, indicating that the council has used a limited competition route for an established transport operator. Providers with experience of council-funded school transport and SEND passenger requirements would be best placed to assess similar future demand.
