Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured specialist client transport services for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The requirement covers transporting two passengers travelling into Guildford College, using a saloon vehicle, on the Haslemere-to-Guildford route. The service falls within passenger transport services and is intended to support access to education. The buying organisation is Surrey County Council, with delivery centred on travel between Haslemere and Guildford College. The requirement is a single service package rather than a multi-lot programme, and is specific to the safe and reliable transport of the named passenger group.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. Brookwood Cars and Taxis was selected, and the contract was signed on 4 September 2026. The contract value is £27,011.43 including tax. The contract period runs from 7 September 2026 to 30 July 2027. The award is active and the contract is active. The procurement used a light-touch regime and covered one service package. The recorded outcome is for transport services from Haslemere to Guildford College for two SEND passengers, with the awarded supplier providing the contracted service.

This award indicates a defined requirement for education-related SEND passenger transport on a regular route between Haslemere and Guildford. A credible competitor for comparable work would need to operate suitable saloon vehicles, provide dependable scheduled journeys, and have the capacity to transport two passengers into Guildford College. The requirement is particularly relevant to private hire, taxi and specialist passenger transport businesses familiar with council-funded client transport. Experience of supporting SEND passengers, reliable driver and vehicle arrangements, and the operational ability to cover the Haslemere-to-Guildford journey would help a supplier demonstrate that it can deliver this focused service safely and consistently.
