## Summary

Surrey County Council procured passenger transport services for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The requirement covered transporting six passengers to Ash Manor School in Aldershot, travelling from Ash Vale. The service requires a large multi-purpose vehicle suitable for the specified passenger journey. This is a local authority transport requirement, with delivery focused on the Ash Vale to Aldershot route and the school destination. The procurement falls within transport services, covering the movement of passengers rather than vehicle supply, construction or general logistics. The named buyer is Surrey County Council, a sub-central public authority based in Reigate. The selected supplier is a small taxi business, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a smaller specialist operator rather than only by a national transport company.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Charleys taxis limited, whose award is recorded as active. The contract was signed on 18 August 2026 and has a value of £37,942.86. It covers the period from 1 September 2026 to 30 July 2027. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition, under the light-touch regime. The procurement consisted of one completed requirement. The award covered passenger transport services for the six-passenger SEND journey to Ash Manor School. The published outcome identifies the successful supplier and the contracted amount, but does not set out a separate weighting or scoring breakdown for evaluation. The contract is below the applicable threshold.

This procurement is relevant to small passenger transport operators, taxi companies and specialist school transport providers able to run a reliable daily service for six SEND passengers in a large MPV. A credible competitor for this buyer would need the right vehicle capacity, dependable journey planning and the operational discipline to serve a fixed route between Ash Vale and Aldershot, with Ash Manor School as the destination. Experience transporting children or passengers with special educational needs would strengthen a future response, particularly where it demonstrates safe, consistent and passenger-focused delivery. The award also shows that Surrey County Council uses limited below-threshold competitions for defined local transport requirements, creating a useful benchmark for operators monitoring similar SEND journeys within the council’s area.
