UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured passenger transport services for special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) provision at Unsted Park School. The requirement was for transport for two students from Woking, using a saloon vehicle, with no passenger assistant required. The service covers the route between Woking and the school location. It is a transport service rather than a supply or construction requirement, classified under CPV 60000000, transport services excluding waste transport. The named buyer is Surrey County Council, a sub-central public authority. The requirement is focused on a specific school journey and a small number of passengers, making it most relevant to operators with suitable saloon vehicles and the ability to provide regular education-related passenger transport in the Surrey and Woking area.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded through a below-threshold limited competition. CandG Cars Ltd was selected as the supplier for the single lot. The contract was signed on 4 September 2026 and has an awarded value of £25,225.71 including tax. The contract period runs from 7 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. The tender described the service as starting on Monday 7 September 2026. The evaluation outcome is represented by the active award to CandG Cars Ltd, while the tender and lot are complete. This was conducted under the light-touch regime. The award relates only to the specified SEND transport requirement for Unsted Park School and two students travelling from Woking.

This award shows Surrey County Council’s demand for tightly scoped SEND school transport delivered by a small operator, rather than a large fleet contract. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need a suitable saloon vehicle, reliable capacity for two students, and the ability to provide consistent scheduled journeys between Woking and Unsted Park School. The successful supplier was identified as an SME, indicating that this type of work can suit smaller passenger transport businesses as well as larger providers. Operators already working in school, assisted or other planned passenger transport could use this requirement as a clear benchmark for the vehicle type, passenger scale and local operating area expected by the council.
