Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured specialist client transport for one pupil with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The service uses a saloon car three days each week, on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The morning journey runs from the pupil’s home postcode, GU10 4RF, to the South Street bus stop beside Sainsbury’s in Farnham, GU9 7RP. The afternoon journey runs from the bus stop between West Street and Castle Street in Farnham, approximately GU9 7ND, back to the home address. The stated route is approximately five miles in total per day. This is a local passenger transport service for a single pupil, bought by Surrey County Council.

The procurement is complete and was run as a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. It had one completed lot. Surrey County Council selected Camberley executive cars, and the contract was signed on 2 September 2026. The contract runs from 3 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £11,986.93 gross, in GBP, and it is below the applicable threshold. The award is active and the contract is active. The requirement was evaluated through the limited competition route; the available information records the selected supplier and service scope but does not provide a separate weighting or scoring breakdown.

This procurement shows a need for dependable, small-scale SEND passenger transport rather than fleet-intensive or high-volume operations. A credible competitor would need to provide a suitable saloon car, maintain reliable service on three fixed weekdays, and manage twice-daily school or college-related journeys for one pupil. Local knowledge of Farnham, the specified bus stops and the home-to-destination route would support consistent delivery. The requirement also indicates that Surrey County Council uses below-threshold limited competitions for individual client transport needs. Businesses offering responsive local passenger transport and the capacity to provide a dedicated service should monitor similar requirements from this buyer and be prepared to demonstrate reliability, route planning and appropriate care for SEND passengers.
