Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured specialist client transport services for Moonhall School & College under its special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) requirement. The service covers three students: one travelling both morning and afternoon, and two siblings travelling in the afternoon only. No passenger assistant is required. The transport arrangement calls for one saloon vehicle with four passenger seats. Students are located in Dorking and Leatherhead, and the school is in Reigate, so the operational requirement links these Surrey locations. The procurement is for transport services, rather than vehicle supply or general passenger transport, and is managed by Surrey County Council as the public-sector buyer.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. It used a limited procurement method under the light-touch regime, with one completed lot. Falcon Transport Ltd was awarded the contract for transport services. The award is active and the contract was signed on 14 August 2026. The contract runs from 3 September 2026 to 31 July 2028, with a gross value of £42,417.43. The published information identifies the award and contract outcome but does not set out a separate scoring model or evaluation weighting. The requirement was assessed through the council’s limited competition process for this single SEND transport arrangement.

This award indicates a defined requirement for dependable school transport for SEND pupils across Dorking, Leatherhead and Reigate. Suppliers well placed for comparable work would be established passenger-transport operators able to provide a saloon with four passenger seats and manage scheduled morning and afternoon journeys for a small number of pupils. The absence of a passenger-assistant requirement points to a straightforward vehicle-and-driver service for this particular route, while the split travel pattern means operators need to organise different morning and afternoon passenger combinations accurately. Credibility for future comparable work would come from practical route coverage in Surrey, suitable vehicle capacity and the operational discipline to deliver regular school journeys for named pupils.
