## Summary

Surrey County Council procured specialist transport services for three passengers with special educational needs and disabilities travelling from Sunbury to Ashford Park Primary School. The route includes a passenger assistant and requires a small or medium MPV capable of storing a collapsible wheelchair. One passenger travels only on morning journeys. The service is intended to provide supported school transport, with passenger assistance adapted to the individual’s health and care needs. The main category is passenger transport services (CPV 60000000). Delivery is focused on the journey between Sunbury and Ashford Park Primary School, with the council acting as the public-sector buyer.

The procurement is complete following a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. Surrey County Council awarded the single lot to 24x7 Surrey, an SME, on 6 August 2026. The contract was signed on the same date and is active, with a period from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2029. Its value is £16,168,240 gross. The award covers the transport service for the three SEND passengers and associated passenger assistance. The process used limited competition rather than an open tender. The tender and lot are recorded as complete, and the award is active. The contract includes the stated route, vehicle and passenger-assistant requirements.

This procurement demonstrates substantial demand from Surrey County Council for managed SEND school transport rather than standard passenger transport alone. A credible future supplier would need to operate small or medium MPVs, accommodate collapsible wheelchairs and provide reliable journeys for children travelling to school. It would also need appropriately trained passenger assistants, including capability in first aid, asthma awareness, inhaler administration when required and epilepsy awareness, with clear emergency procedures. Experience of safeguarding, passenger support and working to individual health requirements would be relevant. Suppliers should also be prepared to assess any TUPE implications and demonstrate the operational capacity to deliver a dedicated education transport route with passenger assistance.
