UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured enhanced-needs transport for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The requirement is taxi or multi-purpose vehicle transport, with a passenger assistant, using vehicles with one to eight passenger seats. It falls within passenger transport services. The work serves the Council’s client transport programme in Surrey; no more specific delivery locations are identified in the available procurement details.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to School Run Ltd. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 1 October 2026 and runs from 5 October 2026 to 30 July 2027. Its value is £40,442.86 including the stated gross amount. The procurement was organised as a single lot for enhanced-needs SEND transport by taxi or MPV with a passenger assistant. The published details identify the selected supplier and the contract outcome, but provide no evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements to report.

This award shows demand from Surrey County Council for specialist SEND passenger transport, rather than general taxi work: delivery requires suitable one-to-eight-seat taxis or MPVs and a passenger assistant. Suppliers best placed for comparable future requirements would be able to provide appropriately sized vehicles and dependable passenger-assistant cover for journeys serving children and young people with additional needs. School Run Ltd, identified as an SME, secured this contract through a limited competition below the public procurement threshold, indicating that a smaller transport operator can serve this scale of requirement. Relevant experience would include coordinating assisted passenger journeys and maintaining the vehicles and staffing needed for consistent service. The procurement details do not set out specific accreditations or further technical standards, so these should not be assumed to have formed part of this award.»} રાજકોટ} иҳәеит — mistakenly token?
