## Summary

Surrey County Council bought client transport services for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities. The service covers five passengers travelling to Stepgates School, using a large multi-purpose vehicle on the route from Woking to Chertsey. Surrey County Council is the public-sector buyer, with the transport requirement focused on taking passengers to school rather than general passenger transport. The procurement is a passenger transport service, classified under CPV 60000000. The requirement concerns a defined school journey and vehicle capacity, so it is most relevant to local or regional operators able to provide a large MPV and manage regular SEND school transport.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. It was divided into one lot, covering the Stepgates School journey. Surrey County Council selected XPERT CARS, an SME, and the award is active. The contract was signed on 19 August 2026, has a gross value of £32,322.57, and runs from 1 September 2026 to 30 July 2027. The tender is subject to the light-touch regime. The recorded route is Woking to Chertsey, with five passengers travelling to Stepgates School in a large MPV. The award relates to services rather than goods or works.

For a supplier that did not win, this award demonstrates a defined requirement for SEND school transport from Surrey County Council, delivered through a limited competition below the threshold. A credible competitor for this requirement would need to operate a large MPV, have capacity for five passengers, and provide a dependable scheduled journey between Woking and Chertsey to Stepgates School. The work is suited to an SME-sized vehicle operator with the operational ability to support school travel for passengers with special educational needs and disabilities. Suppliers with relevant local coverage and experience delivering passenger transport in a school setting would be well placed to compete when this type of requirement returns.
