UK7 - Contract Details Notice
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 carrying 1–8 passengers and accompanied by a passenger assistant. The service forms part of the council’s Client Transport Services programme. The awarded requirement covers transport services for the relevant lot; no specific routes, passenger numbers or journey patterns are described. The named supplier is based in Woking, Surrey, and the buying authority is Surrey County Council.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 26 October 2026 and runs from 3 November 2026 to 31 July 2029. Its value is £142,285. The award was made to ANGEL CARS (WOKING) LTD for enhanced-needs taxi or MPV transport with a passenger assistant. The procurement was divided into lots; this award relates to the lot for that transport service. The source data does not state the evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements, so the award basis beyond the limited competition is not described.

For transport operators, this award demonstrates Surrey County Council’s demand for SEND journeys in taxis or MPVs, with capacity for up to eight passengers and a passenger assistant. Suppliers seeking to compete when this requirement next returns to market would need to provide suitable vehicles and passenger-assistant cover, and be able to deliver transport for passengers with enhanced needs. The contract was awarded through limited competition, so credible operators would need to be prepared for a competitive selection process. The published requirement gives a practical indication of the service model and scale involved, but does not identify specific routes, passenger volumes or detailed service standards. Experience in accessible or specialist passenger transport may help suppliers demonstrate their ability to meet the requirement.
