UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured specialist transport services for two students attending The Rise School Sixth Form at West Thames College. The requirement covers journeys for students based in Shepperton and Sunbury-on-Thames to the college in Isleworth. The service includes one small multi-purpose vehicle with five passenger seats and one personal assistant trained in diabetes awareness. This is a passenger transport services requirement, classified under CPV 60000000. It is relevant to operators providing safe, reliable home-to-school or college transport for young people with special educational needs and disabilities, particularly those able to provide an appropriately sized vehicle and trained passenger support. The council is the public-sector buyer, and delivery involves the student collection locations and the college destination.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. Surrey County Council signed the contract with Nivo Mobility on 27 August 2026. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2027, with a gross value of £48,760.71. There was one lot covering the transport service, and the award is active. Nivo Mobility, an SME based in New Malden, was selected as the supplier. The available outcome information identifies the route as a limited competition; the requirement was evaluated through that procurement process. The contract concerns transport for two students, one trained personal assistant and one five-seat MPV, rather than a broader transport framework or multiple service categories.

This award shows Surrey County Council’s demand for dedicated SEND transport linking residential locations in Shepperton and Sunbury-on-Thames with a specialist sixth-form setting in Isleworth. Suppliers that would be credible for a similar requirement would need dependable passenger transport operations, access to a small MPV with five passenger seats, and the ability to provide a consistent personal assistant alongside the driver or transport service. Experience supporting young people with special educational needs and disabilities would be directly relevant. The diabetes-awareness training requirement indicates that staff must be able to support a passenger with a specific health need. Local or nearby operators able to manage these journeys reliably and coordinate with the college would be well placed when comparable work is next considered.
