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. The service is passenger transport, rather than vehicle supply: suppliers provide journeys for clients whose additional needs require enhanced transport arrangements. The buyer is Surrey County Council, and the successful supplier is based in Chertsey. The procurement data does not identify specific routes, passenger numbers or delivery addresses, so the requirement is best understood as a Surrey County Council SEND transport service rather than a defined route or site contract.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to K and G Transportation Services. The contract was signed on 29 September 2026 and runs from 5 October 2026 to 31 July 2029. Its value is £72,835.71. The council used a below-threshold limited competition. The requirement was divided into lots, and this award covers Lot 2, enhanced-needs taxi or MPV transport; the published outcome identifies one supplier for this lot. No award evaluation criteria or scoring basis are recorded in the procurement details. The contract is active. These dates and value relate to the awarded contract, not an invitation to submit a bid.

For transport operators considering similar Surrey County Council work, this award demonstrates demand for SEND journeys using taxis and MPVs with capacity for up to eight passengers. A credible competitor would need suitable vehicles and the operational ability to deliver transport for passengers with enhanced needs, while meeting the council’s service requirements reliably. The contract is a relatively focused, single-lot service rather than a large, multi-supplier award, making it relevant to operators able to support a defined local authority requirement. The selected provider is based in Chertsey, indicating a supplier serving the area, although the contract does not identify routes or a required operating radius. The limited-competition route is also relevant: competing for comparable work may depend on meeting the buyer’s selection requirements and being considered within a restricted competition.
