UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured child mainstream transport by taxi or multi-purpose vehicle, with capacity for one to eight passengers. The service is for transporting children on mainstream journeys in Surrey. The award identifies transport services as the work being purchased, with CandG Cars Ltd selected to provide them. This is a defined passenger transport requirement rather than a general vehicle hire contract: suppliers need to provide suitable vehicles and deliver journeys for children as part of the council’s client transport service.

The procurement is complete and a supplier has been selected through a below-threshold limited competition. CandG Cars Ltd was awarded the contract. The contract was signed on 25 September 2026 and runs from 28 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £19,234.29 including tax. The procurement was arranged as one lot for standard taxi or MPV transport, with capacity of one to eight passenger seats. The published details do not set out a separate scoring or evaluation basis beyond identifying the limited competition; no additional award criteria are stated.

This award shows that Surrey County Council buys child mainstream transport using small-capacity taxis and MPVs through limited competition, and that the requirement can be delivered by an SME-sized local operator. A credible supplier for this specific service would need to provide reliable passenger transport for children, with suitable one-to-eight-seat vehicles and the operational capacity to cover the council’s required journeys. Experience in child transport and the ability to manage consistent service delivery would be relevant strengths. The awarded contract is modest in scale and relatively short-term, so suppliers should be equipped to serve a focused transport requirement rather than assume a large fleet or broad countywide programme.
