## Summary

Surrey County Council procured specialist school transport for one student attending The Children’s Trust School. The service supports a SEND journey between the student’s location in Epsom and the school in Tadworth. It requires a vehicle with eight passenger seats, carrying one student and one trained personal assistant. The transport must accommodate an extra-large wheelchair using a wide electric ramp, or a manual ramp with a winch. The vehicle also needs two sets of harnesses, a roof anchor point for the belts and a rear-facing seat for the personal assistant. The personal assistant will receive training supported by support workers, family and NHS staff. This is a passenger transport service for a public authority.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Nivo Mobility through a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. The award was made on 14 August 2026 and the contract was signed the same day. The active contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £49,950 gross. The requirement was handled as one completed lot, covering the single student transport service. Evaluation resulted in an active award to Nivo Mobility. The contract concerns service delivery rather than vehicle supply, with the stated requirement focused on safe, accessible transport, trained passenger assistance and specialist wheelchair loading arrangements.

This requirement suits accessible transport operators with experience of SEND and school journeys, particularly those able to provide passenger assistants and coordinate training with families, support workers and NHS staff. Credible suppliers would need an eight-seat vehicle configured for a student and personal assistant, together with robust wheelchair-access equipment. The extra-large wheelchair makes ramp capacity and loading method important: operators would need either a wide electric ramp or a manual ramp supported by a suitable winch. The specification also calls for two harness sets, a roof anchor point for belts and a rear-facing seat for the personal assistant. Relevant capability is therefore a combination of specialist vehicle provision, safe passenger handling, safeguarding-aware staff and reliable scheduled transport for Surrey County Council.
