Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council has procured enhanced-needs transport for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The service is described as taxi or multi-purpose vehicle transport, with vehicles seating between one and eight passengers. This is passenger transport rather than vehicle supply: the requirement is to provide journeys for council clients who need enhanced support. The contract is associated with a single lot, covering this transport service. The buying organisation is Surrey County Council, based in Reigate. The supplier is based in West Byfleet, indicating a local provider was selected, although the recorded delivery location is not stated.

The procurement is complete and a supplier has been selected. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition. TSM Premier Cars was awarded the contract; the award is active and the contract is also active. The contract was signed on 29 September 2026, with a period from 5 October 2026 to 31 July 2029. Its recorded value is £65,478.57 including tax. The procurement concerns one lot for enhanced-needs SEND transport. The data identifies the service and vehicle capacity but does not set out evaluation criteria or participation requirements. The title refers to a broader 2026–2034 programme, while the recorded contract period is shorter; the contract dates above describe this award.

This award shows Surrey County Council buys taxi and MPV transport for SEND clients requiring enhanced-needs provision, with individual vehicles able to carry between one and eight passengers. A future competitor would need to demonstrate the ability to provide suitable passenger transport for people with additional needs, along with vehicles and operational capacity appropriate to the stated seating range. The selected supplier, TSM Premier Cars, is based in West Byfleet, evidence that a local transport operator can serve this requirement. The contract is a focused service lot rather than a broad transport package, so providers whose business includes dependable taxi or MPV operations and support for SEND journeys are the closest fit. No particular accreditation or qualification is identified in the recorded requirements.
