UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured specialist transport for one pupil with special educational needs and disabilities travelling to Freemantles Secondary School. The requirement is a route-based passenger transport service using a medium-sized people carrier with seven or eight seats, with a personal assistant travelling with the pupil. The journey starts from a pick-up address in Camberley and provides access to the school. The service includes the provision and use of one booster seat and one Houdini harness. This is a local passenger transport requirement rather than a general vehicle-hire service: suppliers need to provide an appropriate vehicle, a suitable driver and personal-assistance arrangements for a single pupil’s school travel. The relevant service category is passenger transport services.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. Camberley Taxis was selected as the supplier for the single lot. The award is active and the contract was signed on 17 August 2026. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its gross value is £46,382.14. The stated requirement covers one pupil, one route and one medium people carrier, so the awarded amount relates to this individual service rather than a wider transport framework. The published procurement information identifies the buyer, supplier, completed outcome and contract arrangements, but does not set out a separate weighting or scoring basis for evaluation.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Surrey County Council for dedicated SEND school transport in Camberley, with the service centred on one pupil and a single school route. Suppliers well placed for a comparable requirement would be established local taxi, private-hire or specialist passenger-transport operators able to provide a reliable seven- or eight-seat MPV, an appropriately experienced driver and a personal assistant. They would also need to manage supported travel for a child with additional needs and supply or safely use specialist equipment, including a booster seat and Houdini harness. Credibility would depend on dependable daily school journeys, suitable safeguarding and passenger-care arrangements, vehicle capacity, and the operational ability to coordinate pick-up and school arrival for an individual passenger.
