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 service uses taxis or multi-purpose vehicles with capacity for 1–8 passengers, accompanied by a passenger assistant (PA). The work is categorised as transport services and is for the Council’s client transport provision. The supplier is based in Woking; the procurement data does not identify where journeys are delivered.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition for one lot covering enhanced-needs taxi/MPV transport with a PA. STL was awarded the contract. The contract was signed on 5 October 2026 and runs from 12 October 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £52,142.86 including gross value, in GBP. The award is recorded as active. The published information gives no award date separate from the contract signing date, so the signing date is reported here as the recorded contract date.

For suppliers competing when this requirement returns to market, the buyer’s purchase shows a need for SEND transport by taxi or MPV, with a PA travelling alongside passengers. Credible providers would need access to suitable vehicles carrying between one and eight passengers and the capacity to provide passenger-assistant support as part of the service. Experience arranging transport for people with enhanced needs and coordinating safe journeys would be relevant to this buyer’s stated requirement. The awarded supplier is based in Woking, indicating a local provider was selected, but the procurement does not set out a specific delivery area or state required accreditations, fleet size or experience thresholds.
