## Summary

Surrey County Council procured specialist transport services for pupils with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) attending Unified Academy in Dorking. The requirement covers transport from Redhill and Horley for five pupils, following the pupils’ timetables. The service requires a medium-sized multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) and does not include a passenger assistant. This is a passenger transport service, classified under CPV 60000000. The work is centred on transporting the identified pupils between the Redhill/Horley area and the academy in Dorking. It is a council-funded education transport requirement, rather than a general vehicle hire or unrelated school transport contract.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. Surrey County Council used a limited procedure under the light-touch regime. Sprint transfers Ltd was awarded the contract on 19 August 2026, and the contract was signed the same day. The contract is active and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2029. Its value is £112,480 gross. One lot was awarded, covering the full requirement for the five-pupil SEND transport service. The evaluation outcome selected Sprint transfers Ltd as the supplier; the published procurement data does not set out a separate scoring breakdown or additional award criteria.

This award indicates a defined and recurring need for a small-scale SEND school transport operation for Surrey County Council, with a route linking Redhill and Horley to Dorking. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to provide a reliable medium-sized MPV, plan and deliver journeys against individual pupil timetables, and manage consistent daily transport for five pupils. Experience of school or SEND transport would be directly relevant, particularly the safeguarding, punctuality, communication and operational reliability expected when transporting children to education. The award was made through a below-threshold limited competition, so suppliers suited to council-led, tightly scoped transport procurements should monitor similar Surrey County Council requirements and be ready to evidence dependable local delivery.
