UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council bought standard taxi and MPV transport for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The service covers vehicles with capacity for one to eight passengers and falls within passenger transport services. The procurement is identified as Lot 1 of the council’s client transport programme. The buyer is Surrey County Council, based in Reigate, Surrey. The source data does not give specific pick-up, drop-off or delivery locations, so the requirement can only be placed at county level from the information available.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Allianz Cars Ltd. The contract was signed on 2 October 2026 and runs from 5 October 2026 to 30 July 2027. Its value is £18,729.30. The council used a below-threshold limited competition for this SEND transport requirement; the award was made for one lot. The contract is active. No detailed evaluation criteria are provided in the process data, so the basis used to assess competing suppliers cannot be described further.

This award shows Surrey County Council’s demand for standard taxi and MPV transport for SEND passengers, using vehicles that carry between one and eight passengers. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to demonstrate the ability to provide appropriate small-vehicle transport for this passenger group and to meet the council’s transport service requirements. The award went to a large supplier, indicating that a larger operator was selected for this lot, although the data does not set out any specific accreditation, fleet, staffing or experience requirements. Suppliers whose business includes accessible, dependable passenger transport for children and young people with SEND are the closest fit to the requirement.
