## Summary

Surrey County Council procured specialist client transport services for three students travelling to NESCOT in Epsom. The requirement covers one student from Staines who is visually impaired, one from East Molesey who is visually impaired and one from Epsom who has epilepsy. The service requires a medium-sized multi-purpose vehicle and a passenger assistant. The passenger assistant is assigned to the student with epilepsy and must complete online seizure-awareness training before the route begins. If a seizure occurs during transport, there is no emergency medication available and emergency services must be called. The work covers student journeys involving Staines, East Molesey, Epsom and NESCOT in Surrey. This is a passenger transport service, classified under CPV 60000000.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was awarded to Sonic Carz. The award is active and the contract was signed on 1 September 2026. The contract value is £49,050 gross, including any applicable taxes, and the contract runs from 7 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. The requirement was treated as a light-touch service. The contract covers the single student transport route described in the tender, with the award linked to that lot. The recorded award information identifies Sonic Carz as the selected supplier. The procedure used was a limited competition rather than an open competition.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Surrey County Council for planned home-to-education transport for students with visual impairments and epilepsy. A credible future supplier would need a suitable medium MPV, the operational capacity to provide reliable journeys between the named Surrey locations and NESCOT, and staff able to support vulnerable students safely. Passenger-assistant provision is central to the requirement, including assigning support to a student with epilepsy. Relevant personnel would need to complete seizure-awareness training before service delivery and understand the required response if a seizure occurs, including calling 999 where emergency medication is unavailable. Smaller transport operators can be competitive on this type of focused route, provided they can combine vehicle availability, safeguarding-minded passenger care and dependable daily operations.
