## Summary

Surrey County Council procured specialist transport services for two pupils with special educational needs and disabilities travelling to Maypole School. The requirement is a single route using a saloon car, with no specialist equipment needed. The school is on Green Street, Sunbury-on-Thames, Surrey. This is passenger transport work rather than vehicle supply, infrastructure or general school services. The procurement falls within transport services, covering the provision of the vehicle and journey service needed to take the pupils to the school. Businesses operating local passenger transport or school transport services, particularly those able to provide an appropriate saloon vehicle and manage a small, dedicated route, are the closest fit. The buying organisation is Surrey County Council.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to XP Cars Limited trading as Express Cars, an SME based in Ashford. The council used a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. The contract was signed on 12 August 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its gross value is £19,266.43 including taxes, in GBP. There was one completed lot covering the route requirement. The award is active and the contract is active. The available outcome identifies XP Cars Limited trading as Express Cars as the selected supplier. The procurement title describes client transport services for SEND pupils, covering the 2026–2034 programme, while this awarded contract period covers the dates stated above.

This award demonstrates a defined local requirement for SEND passenger transport: a dedicated saloon-car journey serving two pupils and a school in Sunbury-on-Thames. It is relevant to small transport operators, taxi and private-hire businesses, and school transport specialists that can provide a suitable saloon vehicle and deliver a consistent, pupil-focused service on a single route. The successful supplier was an SME, showing that the requirement can be handled by a relatively small operator rather than only a large fleet provider. A credible competitor for a future requirement from Surrey County Council would need local operating capability, the capacity to cover the specified school journey, and an approach suited to transporting SEND pupils without specialist equipment.
