UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured client transport services for special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) provision. The requirement covers transport for one pupil between Hersham Tuition in Walton-on-Thames and Guildford. It is a passenger transport service, classified under CPV 60000000. The specified vehicle is a saloon car and the journey does not require a passenger assistant. The council is the buying organisation, with the service centred on transporting a single pupil to or from the named tuition setting and Guildford. This is a focused, low-volume education transport requirement rather than a general fleet, school bus or passenger assistant service. It is most relevant to operators able to provide reliable individual pupil journeys in a saloon vehicle and work with local authority SEND transport arrangements.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was awarded to ANGEL CARS (WOKING) LTD. The award was active and the contract was signed on 28 August 2026. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £20,931.43 including gross value, in GBP. The award covers the passenger transport service for one SEND pupil, using a saloon car and no passenger assistant. The procurement was conducted under the light-touch regime. The available information records the limited competition route, but does not set out separate quality, price or other evaluation weightings. This was a single-lot award, rather than multiple awards split between suppliers.

For a supplier that did not win this contract, the award provides a clear example of Surrey County Council’s demand for individually arranged SEND pupil transport. A credible competitor for this requirement would need to operate a reliable saloon vehicle, provide consistent journeys for one pupil, and manage transport linked to a named tuition setting and destination in the local area. The limited-competition route means suppliers should be able to respond efficiently to focused, below-threshold requirements rather than relying on a large fleet operation. Experience of local-authority passenger transport, safeguarding expectations and the practical needs of SEND learners would strengthen a supplier’s position. The requirement also indicates that the council uses specialist, single-passenger arrangements where a passenger assistant is not required.
