UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured specialist client transport services for Moonhall School & College in Reigate, supporting seven students with special educational needs and disabilities. The students are located in Merstham and Redhill, and require transport to the school in Reigate. The requirement is for one large multi-purpose vehicle with eight passenger seats. No personal assistant is required. One student does not travel on Monday, Wednesday or Thursday afternoons, which affects the operating schedule. This is a passenger transport service rather than a goods, construction or facilities contract, and is suited to operators providing regular assisted school journeys within Surrey.

The procurement has completed through a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. One lot was awarded to 24x7 Surrey on 20 August 2026, with an awarded contract value of £112,010.66 including gross value, in GBP. The contract was signed on 20 August 2026 and is active for the period from 3 September 2026 to 31 July 2029. The requirement was evaluated through the limited competition process. The procurement covered a single transport service requirement for Moonhall School & College, with the award relating to the complete lot rather than multiple separately awarded services.

This award demonstrates recurring demand from Surrey County Council for dedicated school transport for pupils with special educational needs and disabilities. A credible competing supplier would need an appropriately sized, reliable passenger vehicle, with capacity for eight passengers, and the operational ability to provide scheduled journeys between Merstham, Redhill and Reigate. The service pattern requires careful handling of a timetable in which one student travels less frequently on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday afternoons. Relevant strengths include dependable daily transport operations, route planning, safeguarding-conscious work with children and young people, and the capacity to maintain service continuity throughout the school year. A Surrey-based or nearby operator with suitable vehicles and local knowledge would be well placed.
