UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured child mainstream client transport services for Woking High School in Woking. The requirement covers transport for four pupils travelling from Chobham and Woking, with no passenger assistant required. The service uses one saloon car. This is a local passenger transport requirement supporting school travel, rather than a general school transport programme or a wider vehicle fleet contract. The procurement is managed by Surrey County Council, a public authority based in Reigate. The service location is Woking High School and the stated pupil travel area of Chobham and Woking. The relevant business area is contracted passenger transport for children and young people, using a saloon vehicle and operating without a passenger assistant.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded through a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. One lot was awarded to Hilz Transport. The award was active and the contract was signed on 24 August 2026. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. Its value is £37,945.71 including tax, in total for the awarded contract. The evaluation basis is not stated in the available procurement details. The requirement was not divided into multiple awarded lots. The selected supplier is Hilz Transport, an SME based in Woking. The contract status is active, and the recorded procurement status is complete.

This award shows Surrey County Council has a defined requirement for local, child-focused passenger transport linked to a named secondary school and specific journeys between Chobham, Woking and the school. A credible future competitor would need to provide a suitable saloon car, reliably carry four pupils, and operate without a passenger assistant where the requirement allows that arrangement. Local knowledge of Woking and Chobham would be commercially relevant, as would the capacity to deliver scheduled school transport throughout the stated service period. The incumbent is an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a smaller specialist transport business rather than only by a large national operator. The opportunity is therefore most relevant to local or regional passenger transport providers.
