## Summary

Surrey County Council procured a passenger transport service for a special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) journey. The requirement covers transport for one student from Godalming to Merrywood House – Abinger Campus in Dorking. The stated journey specification is for a saloon car and does not require a personal assistant. This is a local, individual passenger transport service rather than a general bus operation, fleet transport contract or goods supply. The relevant work is the safe and reliable conveyance of a SEND student between the specified origin and education setting. The council is the public-sector buyer, and delivery takes place on the Godalming to Dorking route in Surrey.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to AK carz Ltd. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. The award was made on 14 August 2026. One lot was awarded, covering transport services. The contract was signed on 14 August 2026 and has an active status. Its period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. The contract value is £49,923.58 including tax, in GBP. The requirement was evaluated through the limited competition process, with the selected supplier providing the specified SEND passenger transport service. The awarded scope is a single student journey, so the value relates to this individual route rather than a wider transport framework.

This award shows demand from Surrey County Council for dedicated SEND passenger transport on a defined education journey, using a saloon car for one student without a personal assistant. Suppliers best placed for similar requirements will be able to provide dependable scheduled car transport, operate safely with children or young people with SEND, and manage reliable collection and drop-off between a home-area location and an education setting. Local knowledge of Godalming, Dorking and the surrounding Surrey road network would support credible delivery. A small operator can be relevant to this type of requirement, provided it can offer consistent driver availability, an appropriate vehicle, safeguarding-focused service and the operational resilience needed for regular education travel.
