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 with seating for one to eight passengers. The requirement is part of the council’s client transport services and covers passenger transport rather than vehicle supply. The work serves journeys arranged by the council in Surrey. The awarded service is identified as Lot 2, for enhanced-needs transport; no more detailed journey, staffing or service-delivery scope is set out in the published procurement data.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Surrey County Council used a limited competition below the applicable threshold. Green Line Cars was selected for the enhanced-needs taxi/MPV transport requirement. The contract was signed on 21 October 2026 and runs from 2 November 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its stated value is £8,710.71 including gross value. The procurement was divided into a single identified lot, which is complete. No award-scoring criteria or separate eligibility conditions are recorded in the process data.

This award shows Surrey County Council buys a defined, small-scale taxi and MPV transport service for passengers with enhanced needs, within its SEND transport programme. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to provide suitable vehicles seating one to eight passengers and demonstrate the operational ability to deliver council-arranged passenger journeys reliably in Surrey. The successful supplier is a small or medium-sized business, showing that a smaller operator can serve this requirement. The procurement used a limited competition below threshold, so businesses monitoring this buyer should understand that comparable work may be competed through a restricted route rather than an open tender. The service is specific to enhanced-needs SEND transport, not general passenger transport.
