UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured passenger transport services for a special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) journey to Brighton Metropolitan College. The requirement covers one passenger travelling from Epsom, using a saloon car for the route. This is a passenger transport service rather than a vehicle supply, construction or general logistics contract. The work is associated with Surrey and the journey between Epsom and Brighton Metropolitan College, supporting access to education. The buying organisation is Surrey County Council, a local authority. The requirement sits within the wider Client Transport Services 2026–2034 programme and concerns a specific education transport route.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. The award was made to STL on 4 September 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract is active from 7 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £38,831.25 including tax. The procurement used a light-touch regime and covered one requirement. The service was evaluated through the limited competition route; the published information does not set out a separate quality or price weighting. Surrey County Council is the buyer, and STL is the selected supplier for the passenger transport service.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for specialist education transport: safely and reliably carrying a single passenger from Epsom to Brighton Metropolitan College in a saloon car. Suppliers well placed for comparable work would be established passenger transport operators with suitable saloon vehicles, dependable drivers and the operational capacity to provide a consistent journey service. Experience of SEND or other assisted passenger transport would help demonstrate an understanding of individual travel needs, safeguarding and reliable education-related transport. Local knowledge of the Epsom and Brighton route, robust scheduling and contingency arrangements would strengthen credibility. The buyer’s use of a below-threshold limited competition also indicates a route suited to capable operators able to respond to focused, route-specific requirements.
