UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured school transport for a single student with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), travelling between Farnham and Anstey Manor School in Alton. The requirement is for one saloon car with four passenger seats and no passenger assistant. This is a passenger transport service, classified under CPV 60000000. The journey links the student’s location in Farnham, Surrey, with the school in Alton, Hampshire, so the service involves cross-county travel. The contracting authority is Surrey County Council, which arranged the transport as part of its client transport services programme. The requirement is a specific home-to-school journey rather than a broad fleet, network or general passenger transport service.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. Green line cars was selected as the supplier, and the contract was signed on 8 September 2026. The contract runs from 10 September 2026 to 31 July 2029. Its awarded value is £67,821.43 including tax. The requirement was treated as a light-touch services procurement and was handled as one completed lot. The award covers the transport service for the identified student and school journey. The published outcome records an active contract with Green line cars; no cancelled award or terminated contract is reported. The award date is 8 September 2026, and the contract period covers the 2026/27, 2027/28 and 2028/29 school years.

This award demonstrates demand for reliable, dedicated SEND school transport serving a single student on a defined route between Farnham and Alton. Suppliers well placed for comparable work would be established passenger transport operators able to provide a suitable four-passenger-seat saloon, maintain dependable scheduled journeys and manage regular school-term transport over several years. Local knowledge of Farnham, Alton and the cross-county route would be commercially useful, as would the capacity to commit a vehicle and driver consistently for one pupil rather than relying on occasional availability. The requirement also indicates an opportunity for smaller operators: the successful supplier is an SME, and the contract was awarded through a below-threshold limited competition.
