Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council commissioned standard taxi and multi-purpose vehicle transport for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The requirement is for vehicles with capacity for one to eight passengers and falls within passenger transport services. The contract concerns one standard-transport lot within the council’s wider client transport programme. The supplier is based in Redhill, Surrey, while the data does not identify the individual routes or delivery locations. This is a practical, passenger transport requirement rather than a purchase of vehicles: the supplier provides transport services for the council’s SEND clients.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition. Swyft Executive Ltd was selected for the standard taxi/MPV transport lot. The contract was signed on 23 October 2026 and runs from 2 November 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its stated value is £23,011.77. The procurement information identifies the service type and lot but does not give a separate award date or explain how competing offers were evaluated. The contract is part of the council’s Client Transport Services 2026–2034 programme; those programme years are not the stated contract period.

For a future requirement of this kind, credible suppliers will need to provide reliable taxi or MPV transport for SEND passengers, with vehicles seating between one and eight passengers. The award demonstrates that Surrey County Council has used a limited competition for a defined, standard-transport requirement and selected a passenger transport provider. Suppliers whose operations can accommodate this kind of client transport, including the practical demands of serving passengers with special educational needs and disabilities, are the closest fit. The contract is a modest, focused service rather than a large fleet or infrastructure project, so operators able to deliver the specified transport service at that scale are relevant competitors. The published scope does not set out particular vehicle adaptations, accreditations or staff qualifications.
