## Summary

Surrey County Council procured client transport services for children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The requirement covers a weekday school transport route between Guildford and Bramley Oak Academy, Bramley, Surrey, GU5 0BJ. The service uses a medium-sized seven-seat MPV to carry three children from Guildford to the academy. Individual passengers may require booster seats. This is a passenger transport service rather than a vehicle supply or construction requirement. Businesses suited to the opportunity include operators experienced in scheduled school or community transport, particularly those able to provide a seven-seat MPV and accommodate children who may need booster seating. The route is associated with Surrey County Council’s education transport provision.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to iconnectcar. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. One lot was awarded, with no separate lot values published. The award was made on 6 August 2026 for £2,946,429 including the stated gross value, in GBP. The contract was signed on 6 August 2026 and runs from 4 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. It covers transport services for the Bramley Oak Academy SEND route, operating Monday to Friday. The contract is active, while the associated tender is complete. The award record identifies iconnectcar as the selected supplier.

For a supplier that did not win, this award provides a clear example of Surrey County Council’s demand for substantial SEND passenger transport delivered through a limited competition. A credible competitor for comparable work would need to provide a reliable weekday service, operate a medium seven-seat MPV, and plan journeys for children travelling from Guildford to a named school destination. The requirement also demonstrates the practical importance of accommodating passengers who may need booster seats. Relevant strengths therefore include dependable route-based operations, suitable passenger vehicles, and experience coordinating school transport for children with additional needs. Suppliers able to combine these capabilities with the capacity to deliver a sizeable council service would be well placed for similar Surrey requirements.
