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), using taxis or multi-purpose vehicles carrying between one and eight passengers. The requirement is part of the council’s client transport services and covers passenger transport rather than vehicle supply. Surrey County Council is the buying organisation. The work is associated with Lot 2 and is classified as transport services. The supplier is based in Woking; the procurement data does not state a specific delivery address or route, so the service should be understood as transport for the council’s SEND clients rather than a named journey or site.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Green line cars. The council used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 2 October 2026 and runs from 5 October 2026 to 30 July 2027. Its stated value is £22,350 including VAT. The award is active and relates to the enhanced-needs taxi or MPV transport requirement for SEND passengers. There is one lot, and the award covers that lot. The available procurement details do not set out an evaluation formula or specific eligibility conditions, so the outcome identifies the selected supplier and procedure but not the criteria used to compare offers.

This award shows Surrey County Council’s demand for enhanced-needs SEND passenger transport by taxi or MPV, with vehicles accommodating between one and eight passengers. Green line cars, an SME based in Woking, was selected through a limited competition, indicating that a smaller local operator can deliver this type of service. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to provide suitable taxi or MPV capacity and demonstrate that it can transport SEND passengers reliably for the council. The requirement is focused on passenger transport for clients with enhanced needs, rather than general vehicle hire or broad transport services. Suppliers with relevant operating capacity and experience serving this passenger group are the closest fit.
