## Summary

Surrey County Council procured specialist client transport services for Fox Grove School under its SEND transport requirements. The service covers travel for four pupils, with one passenger assistant required for the journey. It involves providing a medium-sized multi-purpose vehicle with seven passenger seats. The pupils are based in the GU1, GU2 and GU4 postcode areas, so the operational requirement is focused on transport within and around those parts of Surrey. This is a passenger transport service rather than a vehicle supply or construction contract. The procurement falls within the broad category of transport services, excluding waste transport, and is intended to support safe, regular travel for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. Surrey County Council selected SM Cars, a Woking-based small business, and signed the contract on 11 August 2026. The contract is valued at £166,440 gross, in pounds sterling, and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2029. The award is active and the contract is active. The requirement was treated as a light-touch service procurement and was arranged as a single package covering the Fox Grove School transport service. The available outcome records identify the successful supplier and contract value; no separate evaluation weighting or award criteria are stated.

This procurement indicates demand for reliable, specialist school transport serving Surrey County Council’s SEND passengers. A credible competitor would need to operate a suitable seven-seat medium MPV, provide safe and dependable passenger transport, and accommodate a passenger assistant alongside the driver and pupils. Local knowledge of the GU1, GU2 and GU4 areas would support efficient route planning and consistent service delivery. The requirement also suits smaller transport operators: the selected supplier is recorded as an SME. Relevant businesses should therefore be able to demonstrate practical capacity for regular pupil journeys, suitable vehicle provision, safeguarding-conscious operations and dependable coordination with a school and council. Experience of SEND or assisted passenger transport would strengthen a future response.
