UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured enhanced-needs transport by taxi or multi-purpose vehicle for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The service covers vehicles with one to eight passenger seats and forms Lot 2 of the council’s wider client transport programme. The buyer is Surrey County Council, based in Reigate. The supplier is based in Woking, but the data does not identify the places where passengers are picked up or taken.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Green line cars. It was run as a below-threshold limited competition. The award is for transport services under the enhanced-needs taxi/MPV lot. The contract was signed on 1 October 2026, with a stated value of £20,716.43 including tax, and runs from 5 October 2026 to 31 July 2027. The recorded award is active and the contract is active. The published procurement information does not set out evaluation criteria or specific eligibility requirements.

This award shows Surrey County Council buying specialist passenger transport for people with SEND, using taxis or MPVs accommodating one to eight passengers. A credible competitor for this requirement would need the vehicles and operational capacity to provide safe, reliable journeys for passengers with enhanced needs, alongside the experience and staff capability to support those passengers. The contract was awarded through limited competition, so suppliers should be positioned to meet the council’s requirements and participate in that type of procurement route. Green line cars, a small or medium-sized business based in Woking, was selected, demonstrating that a smaller local operator can deliver this scale of service.
