UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured specialist passenger transport services for SEND travel to Landon School. The requirement covers one route carrying five passengers: one from Cobham, one from Walton-on-Thames and three from Shepperton. The service requires a large multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) suitable for transporting the passenger group. Work is delivered across these Surrey locations and to Landon School. The procurement is a transport service, classified under CPV 60000000. It is relevant to operators providing school or assisted passenger transport, particularly businesses with suitable large vehicles and the ability to manage scheduled journeys involving passengers with special educational needs and disabilities.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. Surrey County Council selected AK carz Ltd for the single requirement. The contract was signed on 14 August 2026 and is active, with a contract period from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. The contract value is £82,377.15 gross, including the stated value in GBP. The award is for transport services for the five-passenger Landon School route. The process used a limited procurement method under the light-touch regime. The published outcome records one active award and one active contract, both relating to the full requirement.

This procurement demonstrates a defined need for SEND school transport serving Cobham, Walton-on-Thames, Shepperton and Landon School. Competitors would need to operate a large MPV and provide reliable, scheduled passenger journeys for a small group rather than general taxi or standard car work. Credibility would depend on experience of school or assisted transport, the capacity to cover the specified route consistently, and arrangements that support passengers with special educational needs and disabilities. Local knowledge of the Surrey journey pattern would be useful, as would the operational resilience to maintain service across the school travel timetable. Smaller transport businesses may be well placed where they can evidence suitable vehicles, dependable delivery and relevant passenger-care capability.
