## Summary

Surrey County Council procured special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) client transport services for one pupil travelling in Dorking. The requirement covers a saloon car and a personal assistant who must be trained in first aid, seizure awareness and asthma awareness. Surrey County Council is the buying organisation. The transport service is associated with DV8 Sussex at 125 Queens Road, Brighton, although the pupil journey is identified as taking place in Dorking. The requirement also includes additional training arranged by the council for administering emergency medication. For the first time buccal midazolam is administered, a paramedic must be present. This is a specialist assisted-pupil transport service rather than general passenger transport.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. Surrey County Council awarded the single completed lot to Forge Mobility Services Limited on 28 August 2026. The contract was signed on the same date and is active. It runs from 1 September 2026 to 30 July 2027. The contract value is £60,234.29 including tax. The service is classified as transport services, excluding waste transport. The published outcome identifies one supplier and one award. No award-scoring or selection criteria are recorded in the procurement information, so the stated route and specialist service requirement are the main indicators of how the competition was structured.

This procurement indicates demand for operators able to provide reliable, individual SEND transport with appropriate safeguarding and passenger support. A credible future competitor would need a suitable saloon vehicle, experience or capability in transporting children with special educational needs, and a personal assistant trained in first aid, seizure awareness and asthma awareness. The requirement also points to the need for robust arrangements for emergency medication: the council organises additional training, and a paramedic must be present when buccal midazolam is administered for the first time. Suppliers should therefore be able to coordinate drivers, trained passenger assistants, medical professionals and the council around a specific pupil journey. The small, focused route suits operators with strong local delivery and responsive care arrangements.
