Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured enhanced-needs transport for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), using taxis or multi-purpose vehicles with capacity for 1–8 passengers. The requirement is identified as Lot 2 of the council’s Client Transport Services programme. It concerns providing passenger transport for clients with enhanced needs; the published item classification describes transport services. The buying organisation is Surrey County Council. The supplier is based in Woking, Surrey, but the procurement data does not identify the delivery area, so no more precise operating location can be stated.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition. Brookwood Cars and Taxis was awarded the contract for this lot. The contract was signed on 25 September 2026 and runs from 5 October 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its stated value is £25,628.57. The procurement was divided into lots, and this award relates to the enhanced-needs taxi/MPV transport requirement. No award evaluation criteria are recorded in the published procurement details.

This award shows demand from Surrey County Council for taxi and MPV transport for SEND clients with enhanced needs, rather than general passenger transport alone. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to provide suitable vehicles with capacity for 1–8 passengers and reliably deliver transport for passengers whose needs require an enhanced service. The contract went to Brookwood Cars and Taxis, a transport supplier based in Woking. The limited-competition route used for this below-threshold purchase is relevant to suppliers assessing how the council has bought this requirement. The procurement details do not set out specific vehicle adaptations, staff qualifications, safeguarding standards or service-performance requirements, so these cannot be treated as confirmed conditions for competing.
