UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured specialist school transport services for Landon School under a SEND client transport requirement. The service covers five passengers in total: three travelling from Sunbury and two from Ashford. A large multi-purpose vehicle is required, together with a personal assistant who has asthma-awareness training. The work is a passenger transport service, classified under CPV 60000000. It is delivered around the routes between the specified passenger origins and Landon School. This requirement is suited to transport operators able to provide suitable vehicles and safe, reliable journeys for children or young people with special educational needs and disabilities, with appropriately trained passenger-support staff.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Mums and Sons Ltd. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. 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 2028. Its value is £119,828.57 including tax. There was one completed lot covering the Landon School transport requirement. The published outcome identifies Mums and Sons Ltd as the selected supplier. The recorded procurement route was limited competition; the available outcome data does not state separate quality or price weightings.

This procurement indicates a defined, multi-year demand for dedicated SEND school transport from Surrey County Council, centred on a single large-MPV route carrying five passengers. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need reliable access to a large MPV, the operational capacity to collect passengers from both Sunbury and Ashford, and the ability to maintain consistent school journeys. It would also need suitably trained passenger-support staff, specifically including asthma awareness, alongside robust safeguarding, passenger care and transport scheduling arrangements appropriate to SEND services. Experience delivering assisted school or specialist passenger transport would help demonstrate that the operator can manage individual needs, route reliability and daily coordination with the school and council.
