## Summary

Surrey County Council procured specialist transport services for two pupils with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), travelling in a saloon car to Meadhurst Primary School. The requirement includes supplying and using two high-back booster seats. This is a passenger transport service rather than a vehicle supply or construction contract, classified under CPV 60000000 for transport services excluding waste transport. The procurement is for a single defined passenger route and a small number of pupils, so it is most relevant to operators with suitable saloon vehicles, reliable drivers and the ability to provide safe, consistent school transport for children with additional needs.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to XPERT CARS, an SME. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. The single lot was awarded, and the contract was signed on 7 August 2026. It runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. The awarded contract value is £48,090.20 including gross value, in GBP. The award covers the transport service for the two pupils and the related requirement for two high-back booster seats. The contracting process used a limited procedure rather than an open competition, and the published outcome records XPERT CARS as the selected supplier.

This procurement shows a defined requirement for recurring SEND school transport from Surrey County Council: a small passenger group, a saloon vehicle, a named school destination and appropriate child safety equipment. A credible competitor for similar work would need dependable saloon-car capacity, drivers able to provide safe and consistent transport for pupils with additional needs, and robust arrangements for school journeys over the academic year. The requirement also indicates that the council uses a limited below-threshold competition for relatively small, route-specific services. Local operators and small transport businesses with relevant SEND experience, suitable vehicles and reliable safeguarding and operational processes would be well placed when assessing comparable council requirements.
