## Summary

Surrey County Council procured client transport services for special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) transport to Bramley Oak Academy, Guildford GU5 0BJ. The requirement covers a weekday saloon-car route for two children: one travelling from Sunbury-on-Thames, who may require a booster seat, and one travelling from Walton-on-Thames, who requires a high-back booster seat. The service connects these locations with the academy and is intended for regular school transport. This is a passenger transport service rather than vehicle supply, fleet maintenance or general school transport provision. The named buying organisation is Surrey County Council, with the service associated with its education and SEND responsibilities.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. Mike Ford was selected as the supplier, and Surrey County Council signed the contract on 11 August 2026. The contract is active from 4 September 2026 to 31 July 2027 and has an awarded value of £36,300 gross. The requirement was structured as one lot covering the transport service. The route was due to start on 4 September 2026. The recorded service category is transport services excluding waste transport. The procurement title describes a wider 2026–2034 client transport programme, but the awarded contract period recorded for this requirement runs to 31 July 2027.

This opportunity shows demand from Surrey County Council for small-scale, recurring SEND passenger transport delivered by a sole trader or small transport operator. A credible future supplier would need a suitable saloon car, dependable weekday availability and the ability to provide safe, consistent journeys for children travelling between Surrey-area communities and a specialist academy. The requirement also demonstrates the importance of accommodating individual passenger needs, including booster seats and high-back booster seats. Operators with experience in assisted or school transport, strong safeguarding practice, reliable route planning and the capacity to maintain punctual service would be well placed to compete when this buyer next tests a similar requirement.
