Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured child mainstream transport services under its Client Transport Services programme. This requirement covered standard transport provided by taxi or multi-purpose vehicle, with capacity for between one and eight passenger seats. The service category is passenger transport services (CPV 60000000). The contract concerns transporting children as part of the council’s mainstream client transport arrangements. The council is the public-sector buyer. The awarded supplier, Angel Cars (Woking) Ltd, is based in Woking, Surrey, indicating that the requirement is relevant to local taxi and private-hire operators with suitable vehicles and the operational ability to provide child transport services for the council.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Angel Cars (Woking) Ltd. It used a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. The requirement was a single lot for standard taxi or MPV transport for one to eight passenger seats. The contract was signed on 18 September 2026, runs from 21 September 2026 to 30 July 2027, and has a value of £10,474.29 including tax. The contract is active. The published outcome identifies Angel Cars as the selected supplier for the child mainstream transport requirement. The process was evaluated through the limited competition route; no separate award criteria are stated in the available procurement details.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for small-vehicle passenger transport supporting children on mainstream journeys for Surrey County Council. Suppliers best placed for a comparable future requirement would be taxi or private-hire operators able to provide vehicles with one to eight passenger seats, organise dependable scheduled journeys and maintain sufficient operational capacity for the service period. Local knowledge of Surrey and surrounding travel routes would support practical delivery, while experience of transporting children would help demonstrate suitability for this buyer’s needs. The relevant commercial model is a relatively small, below-threshold council competition rather than a large transport operation, so established local operators and similarly scaled providers are the closest competitors.
