## Summary

Surrey County Council procured client transport services for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities. This requirement covered enhanced-needs transport delivered by taxi or multipurpose vehicle, with capacity for between one and eight passenger seats. The service sits within the council’s wider client transport programme and is classified as passenger transport services. The buying organisation is Surrey County Council, a public authority based in Reigate. The awarded requirement relates specifically to the second lot for enhanced-needs taxi and MPV transport, rather than general vehicle hire, goods delivery or conventional public bus operations. Suppliers in this market would provide safe, reliable journeys for passengers requiring SEND-focused transport arrangements.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. The requirement was treated as a light-touch service procedure and was evaluated through the council’s competition process. The award went to Zedcarz Limited, and the contract was signed on 16 September 2026. The contract value is £33,964.29 gross, in GBP. The contract period runs from 17 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. One lot was awarded, covering enhanced-needs transport by taxi or MPV with one to eight passenger seats. The award remains active and the contract is active, so the published outcome records a current service arrangement rather than an unsuccessful or cancelled procurement.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Surrey County Council for small-capacity, enhanced-needs passenger transport supporting children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities. A credible future competitor would need to operate taxis or MPVs with capacity for one to eight passenger seats and deliver dependable client transport suited to SEND journeys. Relevant capability would include managing individual or small-group passenger movements, maintaining suitable vehicles, planning reliable services and meeting the practical needs of passengers who require enhanced transport arrangements. The award to Zedcarz Limited, identified as an SME, indicates that this scale of requirement can be delivered by a smaller specialist transport business rather than only by a large national operator.
