## Summary

Wokingham Borough Council procured special educational needs (SEN) home-to-school transport. The requirement is a passenger transport service for school journeys, with delivery in the United Kingdom. The contracting data does not give a more precise route or destination, so the stated scope is SEN school transport for the council.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Alanis Coach on 9 October 2026. The award value is £11,172. The estimated procurement range was £11,172 to £85,500. The contract period runs from 12 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. The council used a restricted procedure. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. No lots or evaluation criteria are stated in the procurement details.

For transport operators, this award shows Wokingham Borough Council’s demand for SEN home-to-school journeys on a relatively small, time-limited service contract. Alanis Coach, identified as an SME, was selected, indicating that a smaller supplier can deliver this requirement. A credible competitor for a similar council requirement would need to demonstrate the capacity and operational capability to provide dependable school transport for children with special educational needs. This is a focused transport service rather than a broad passenger transport requirement; relevant experience in delivering SEN school journeys would therefore be directly pertinent. The award provides a concrete example of the type and scale of service the council buys.
