UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured taxi and MPV transport for children travelling on mainstream routes. The requirement covers standard vehicles with capacity for one to eight passengers. The service is intended to transport children, with delivery in Surrey; no more specific destinations or route details are stated. This is a local passenger transport service rather than a purchase of vehicles. The procurement was divided into one lot for standard taxi/MPV transport. The buyer is Surrey County Council, based in Reigate. The awarded service is listed under transport services and relates specifically to child mainstream transport.

The procurement is complete and a contract was awarded to Courtesy Cars Redhill Ltd. The council used a limited competition below the relevant threshold. The single lot was for standard taxi/MPV transport for children travelling on mainstream routes. The contract was signed on 1 October 2026 and runs from 5 October 2026 to 30 July 2027. Its value is £33,525. The award is active. No award evaluation criteria or scoring basis are stated in the procurement information.

This award shows Surrey County Council buys child mainstream transport using taxis and MPVs seating up to eight passengers, through below-threshold limited competition. Suppliers considering similar work for this buyer would need to provide suitable passenger transport capacity and be able to serve children travelling on mainstream routes in Surrey. The selected supplier, Courtesy Cars Redhill Ltd, is a small or medium-sized business, showing that a smaller local operator secured the contract. A credible competitor would need the operational capacity to deliver the specified transport service reliably and to respond to a limited competition. The procurement information does not set out particular vehicle standards, driver qualifications or safeguarding accreditations, so these should not be presented as confirmed requirements.
