UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured standard transport for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), using taxis or multi-purpose vehicles with capacity for one to eight passengers. The requirement is a passenger transport service, rather than vehicle supply, and forms one lot within the council’s wider client transport programme. The named supplier is based in Redhill, Surrey. The service is for the council’s SEND transport requirement; the published details do not identify specific routes, passenger numbers or delivery addresses.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to EAGLE EXPRESS. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition for this service. The contract was signed on 2 October 2026 and runs from 5 October 2026 to 4 October 2027. Its value is £2,019.43 including taxes. The award is active, and the contract is recorded as active. The requirement was divided into a single lot for standard taxi or MPV transport, with vehicle capacity of one to eight passenger seats. The published award information does not set out evaluation criteria or supplier eligibility requirements.

This award shows Surrey County Council buys small-scale SEND passenger transport through limited competition, and selected EAGLE EXPRESS, a Redhill-based supplier. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to provide taxi or MPV transport for passengers with special educational needs and disabilities, with vehicles accommodating one to eight passengers. Local presence in or near Surrey may be commercially relevant to serving the council, although the specific operating routes are not identified. The published procurement details do not establish particular vehicle standards, driver qualifications, safeguarding accreditations or minimum fleet capacity, so these should not be treated as proven award requirements.
