## Summary

Surrey County Council procured client transport services for two students attending Moon Hall School & College. The requirement covers transport from Warlingham and Caterham to the school in Reigate, with one saloon car providing four passenger seats. No personal assistant is required. This is a passenger transport service for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), intended to provide regular journeys between their locations and school. The buying organisation is Surrey County Council, based in Reigate. The service is local to Surrey, with collection points in Warlingham and Caterham and the destination in Reigate. The procurement falls under transport services, including passenger transport other than waste transport.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was awarded to Optimum Cars Limited and signed on 11 August 2026. The contract value is £44,309.29 gross, covering the single requirement. The contract period runs from 3 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. The tender used the light-touch regime and a limited procurement method rather than an open competition. The award is active and the contract is active. The process concerned one completed lot for the specified school transport service. The outcome identifies Optimum Cars Limited as the selected supplier for the full requirement.

This procurement indicates a defined local market for specialist school transport serving SEND pupils in Surrey. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement of this kind would be able to provide a suitable saloon car with four passenger seats, organise dependable journeys between Warlingham, Caterham and Reigate, and manage regular school travel for two pupils. Relevant experience would include passenger transport for children or young people with additional needs, reliable scheduling, clear communication with the council and school, and the operational capacity to maintain consistent service throughout the school term. A local operator with suitable vehicles and established coverage in Surrey would be well placed to compete when this requirement next returns to the market.
