Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council commissioned standard taxi or MPV transport for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The service is for journeys using vehicles with one to eight passenger seats. The contract covers Lot 1 of the council’s Client Transport Services programme. Transport services are the core requirement; the data does not identify particular routes, passenger numbers or journey patterns. The buyer is Surrey County Council, based in Reigate, Surrey. The delivery location for the journeys is not stated, so the geographic operating area cannot be determined from the published contract information.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. Surrey County Council used limited competition below the applicable threshold. Green line cars was selected as supplier for the standard taxi/MPV SEND transport lot. The contract was signed on 26 October 2026 and runs from 2 November 2026 to 31 July 2028. Its stated value is £50,960. The tender is recorded as complete, and the award as active. The available information identifies the selected supplier and the single awarded lot, but does not set out an evaluation method or award criteria. The contract is for transport services and relates to vehicles seating one to eight passengers; no further service specification or selection requirements are set out in the process data.

This award shows that Surrey County Council buys standard taxi and MPV transport for children and young people with SEND, including journeys in vehicles carrying one to eight passengers. A supplier competing for similar work will need to provide suitable vehicles and reliably deliver passenger transport tailored to SEND journeys. Green line cars, identified as an SME, won this award, showing that this requirement was served by a smaller transport supplier rather than necessarily requiring a large operator. Credibility will depend on having the operational capacity to cover the council’s required journeys and on demonstrating dependable service delivery for passengers with special educational needs and disabilities. The award provides evidence of the buyer’s demand for this specific transport service, rather than for general taxi work.
