UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured specialist client transport services for special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) travel. The requirement was a dedicated route to Knowl Hill School, Bisley Campus, at 196 Guildford Road, Bisley, Woking. The service involved transporting one pupil in a saloon car, with no additional equipment required. The work falls within transport services, covering the journey between the pupil’s location and the school campus. Surrey County Council is the public authority responsible for buying the service. Delivery is centred on the Bisley and Woking area, and the requirement is specifically focused on individual pupil transport rather than a larger bus, fleet or general passenger transport operation.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Hilz Transport through a below-threshold limited competition. The award was made on 18 August 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. Its gross value is £33,951.43. The procurement used a light-touch regime and covered one completed lot. Hilz Transport is the selected supplier, and the contract is active. The published outcome records the award for the SEND client transport route to Knowl Hill School, Bisley Campus. The procedure was a limited competition rather than an open tender, so the opportunity was evaluated through a restricted supplier-selection route.

This requirement demonstrates demand for small-scale, dedicated SEND school transport from Surrey County Council. Suppliers best placed for comparable work would be local transport operators able to provide a suitable saloon car, carry one pupil reliably, and operate the required route to the Bisley school campus. The successful supplier is recorded as an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a smaller transport business rather than only a large fleet operator. Credibility for a future equivalent requirement would come from dependable daily operations, familiarity with individual pupil journeys, and the capacity to provide a consistent vehicle and driver service for the full school travel period. Operators monitoring Surrey’s education transport needs can use this award as evidence of the buyer’s route-specific demand.
