UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured client transport services for Limpsfield Grange School’s special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) pupils. The requirement covers transport for three pupils using a small multi-purpose vehicle, with pupils living in the KT19 and SM7 postcode areas. The service is passenger transport rather than vehicle supply or construction, and includes a passenger assistant (PA) who must complete online seizure-awareness training. The PA must follow the 999 emergency protocol if a seizure occurs. Work is associated with Limpsfield Grange School and the pupil journeys serving the stated postcode areas. The procurement’s classification is transport services, excluding waste transport (CPV 60000000).

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. Regal Cars was selected as supplier, and the contract was signed on 17 August 2026. The contract is active and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2029. Its value is £136,800 gross. The award covers the single SEND client-transport requirement for Limpsfield Grange School. The published outcome records an active award to Regal Cars and an active contract, rather than an unsuccessful or cancelled procurement. The available outcome information identifies the transport service requirement and supplier, but does not state an evaluation weighting or scoring basis.

This award indicates a requirement for a small, specialist school transport operator able to provide reliable passenger journeys for three SEND pupils in the KT19 and SM7 areas. A credible future competitor would need access to a suitable small MPV, operational capability for regular education transport, and a passenger assistant able to complete online seizure-awareness training. The PA must understand and follow the 999 emergency protocol during a seizure, so staff training and dependable incident response are central to the service. Local coverage around Limpsfield Grange School and the relevant pupil postcode areas would help a supplier deliver this focused, small-scale transport arrangement. The award also shows that a small or medium-sized operator can satisfy this buyer’s route-specific need through a limited competition.
