UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured specialist transport services for a child with special educational needs and disabilities. The requirement is a weekday saloon-car journey for one pupil travelling from Send, Woking, to Wishmore, GU24 8NS, with the route beginning at the start of the school year. The service may require a booster cushion. This is individual pupil transport rather than a general bus service, and the work is centred on the Send and Woking area, serving the journey to Wishmore. Businesses suited to this requirement include operators able to provide reliable school-day car transport, manage regular assisted journeys for a child, and meet any safeguarding, passenger-care and vehicle requirements set out for the service.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. ANGEL CARS (WOKING) LTD was selected as the supplier. The award was made on 26 August 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract runs from 3 September 2026 to 31 July 2029 and has an awarded value of £65,995.71 including the stated gross amount, in GBP. It covers one transport requirement. The published outcome records the service category as transport services, excluding waste transport. The procurement was evaluated through the limited competition process; the available outcome data does not set out separate quality, price or scoring weightings.

This award demonstrates sustained demand from Surrey County Council for dedicated SEND school transport on a regular weekday route. A credible future competitor would need to provide a suitable saloon vehicle, dependable Monday-to-Friday availability and the operational discipline to maintain a consistent journey for one pupil over the school term. Experience of transporting children with additional needs would be commercially relevant, particularly where passengers may need reassurance, careful supervision or a booster cushion. Local knowledge of Send, Woking and Wishmore would support reliable scheduling and contingency planning. The successful supplier was a Woking-based private transport operator, indicating that small local operators with appropriate vehicles, dependable drivers and capacity for recurring school transport can compete for this type of council requirement.
