Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council commissioned a passenger transport service for a special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) journey. The service provides transport for one pupil travelling by saloon car to Bramley Grange Academy, with collection from the GU9 8TL pickup point. This is a single-route requirement rather than a wider school transport programme. The contracting authority is Surrey County Council, based in Reigate. The work falls within transport services and is intended to support the pupil’s journey to school. A suitable provider would therefore be a passenger transport operator able to deliver a dedicated, reliable saloon-car journey for one school passenger on this route.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. CandG Cars Ltd was selected as the supplier for the single route. The contract was signed on 8 September 2026 and runs from 9 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £22,285.71 including tax. The award is for transport services and the tender was evaluated through the limited competition route. Surrey County Council records the contract as active and the award as active. The requirement covers one completed lot for the SEND journey to Bramley Grange Academy; no separate lots or alternative award outcomes are identified.

For a competing supplier, this award demonstrates a defined local market for dedicated SEND school transport rather than high-volume fleet operations. A credible provider would need to deliver a consistent saloon-car service for one pupil, covering the specified journey between the GU9 8TL pickup point and Bramley Grange Academy. The route was let through a below-threshold limited competition, so relevant operators should be able to respond efficiently to focused council requirements and present a clear, route-specific service. CandG Cars Ltd is recorded as an SME, showing that this scale of opportunity can suit a smaller passenger transport business with the vehicle and operational capacity to provide a reliable individual school journey.
