Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured standard passenger transport by taxi or multi-purpose vehicle for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The service is for journeys requiring vehicles with capacity for one to eight passengers. The work is transport services delivered in connection with the Council’s SEND provision in Surrey. AHF PROSPER LTD, based in Aldershot, was selected to provide the service. This requirement forms part of the Council’s wider client transport programme, but the awarded work described here is specifically standard taxi/MPV transport for SEND passengers.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition. AHF PROSPER LTD was awarded the contract, which was signed on 23 October 2026. The contract period runs from 2 November 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £21,099.29 including any applicable taxes. The procurement covered one lot for standard taxi/MPV transport, with vehicle capacity of one to eight passenger seats. No award criteria or eligibility requirements are stated in the available procurement details.

For suppliers considering comparable future SEND transport requirements from Surrey County Council, this award indicates demand for standard taxi and MPV journeys using vehicles with capacity for one to eight passengers. A credible operator would need to deliver reliable, passenger-appropriate transport for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities, and have suitable vehicles and the operational capacity to provide the required journeys. The successful supplier is an SME, showing that this requirement was deliverable by a smaller business. The Council used a limited competition for this below-threshold service, so suppliers should be prepared to compete through a restricted process rather than assume an open tender. The award provides a specific example of the Council’s purchasing approach for this transport service.
