## Summary

Surrey County Council procured specialised transport for children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), under the Client Transport Services programme. The requirement was a small MPV with a passenger assistant to support the Harmony route to Disability Challengers in Guildford. The service involves transporting two children from Cranleigh, with journeys operating between the children’s homes and the Guildford destination. One child travels three days each week and the other two days each week. Both children require car seats. This is a local passenger transport service focused on safe, assisted travel for children, rather than general taxi or vehicle-hire provision. The relevant category is transport services, excluding waste transport.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to uk car service, an SME based in Woking. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime, with one completed lot. The award was made on 7 September 2026 and the contract was signed the same day. The contract runs from 8 September to 31 December 2026 and is worth £8,550 gross. The service operates three days a week, generally between 09:30 and 14:30. The route pricing was required by mileage: 23.96 miles on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and 20.65 miles on Wednesdays. The award covers the full transport requirement and is recorded as active.

This award shows demand from Surrey County Council for reliable assisted transport for children with SEND, linking Cranleigh with a specialist destination in Guildford. A credible competitor for this requirement would need access to a suitable small MPV, the capacity to provide a passenger assistant, and the ability to transport children safely using correctly fitted car seats. Operational strength would include dependable attendance on a fixed weekly schedule, careful handling of different travel frequencies, and accurate mileage-based pricing. Experience in school, social care or other passenger transport involving children would help demonstrate suitability, but the published award does not identify specific accreditations or formal experience thresholds. The successful supplier was an SME, indicating that this scale of service can be delivered by a smaller local operator.
