UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured enhanced-needs passenger transport for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), using taxis or multi-purpose vehicles with wheelchair access and capacity for 1–8 passengers. The work is a passenger transport service, rather than vehicle supply. The requirement is identified as Lot 2 of the council’s wider client transport programme. Services are associated with Woking, where the selected provider is based; the data does not identify individual passenger routes or delivery addresses.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 21 October 2026 and awarded to ANGEL CARS (WOKING) LTD. The contract period runs from 4 November 2026 to 31 July 2027, with a gross value of £42,079.29. The contract covers the single enhanced-needs transport lot described above. The available procurement details do not state the evaluation criteria, so the basis on which competing offers were compared cannot be summarised.

This award shows demand from Surrey County Council for specialist SEND transport by wheelchair-accessible taxi or MPV, with vehicles able to carry between one and eight passengers. A credible competitor would need suitable accessible vehicles and the operational ability to provide passenger transport for people with enhanced needs. Angel Cars (Woking) Ltd, based in Woking, was selected through limited competition, demonstrating that a local transport operator was able to meet this requirement. The contract is relatively focused in scale and duration, so firms with an appropriately sized accessible fleet and experience arranging SEND journeys may be better placed than suppliers whose offer centres on large general transport operations. The requirement is specific to this buyer’s client transport service.
