UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured standard SEND transport by taxi or MPV, with vehicles seating between one and eight passengers. The service supports transport for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities. This is passenger transport rather than vehicle supply: the requirement is to carry passengers using taxi or MPV transport. The awarded lot is described as standard transport and is part of the council’s wider client transport services programme. The procurement record identifies Surrey County Council as the buyer and STL as the selected supplier. The work is associated with Surrey County Council; no more specific delivery locations are identified in the available procurement details.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition for the single standard taxi/MPV transport lot. STL was selected for the award. The contract was signed on 7 October 2026 and runs from 8 October 2026 to 30 July 2027. Its stated value is £24,390.18 including gross value, in pounds sterling. The procurement title refers to Client Transport Services 2026–2034, but the contract period recorded for this awarded lot is the shorter period stated above. No evaluation criteria or supplier eligibility requirements are set out in the procurement details provided.

For suppliers that missed this award, it demonstrates Surrey County Council’s demand for standard SEND passenger transport using taxis or MPVs with capacity for up to eight passengers. A credible competitor for the same requirement would need to provide suitable vehicles and dependable passenger transport for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities. The award was made through a limited competition below the procurement threshold, so suppliers should be prepared to compete through that route if the requirement returns. The award establishes that a transport supplier, rather than a vehicle vendor, met the buyer’s needs for this lot. The contract is relatively focused in scale and duration, making it relevant to operators able to deliver a defined passenger transport service for the council.
