## Summary

Surrey County Council procured client transport services for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The requirement covers enhanced-needs transport using taxis or multi-purpose vehicles with capacity for one to eight passenger seats. The service is classified as transport services and relates to Lot 2 of the council’s wider client transport programme. Delivery is for Surrey County Council’s transport responsibilities in Surrey. The selected provider is Surrey Auto Travel, a Surrey-based small business. This is a passenger transport service rather than a vehicle supply, construction or general goods contract, so it is relevant to operators able to provide suitable taxi or MPV journeys for passengers with enhanced transport needs.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. Surrey Auto Travel was selected for the single lot. The contract was signed on 17 September 2026, has a value of £26,605, and runs from 21 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. The award is active and the contract is active. The procurement uses the light-touch regime and the main category is services. The published outcome identifies one supplier and one transport-services requirement, covering Lot 2: enhanced-needs transport by taxi or MPV for one to eight passenger seats. The recorded procurement title describes a wider 2026–2034 client transport programme, while this awarded contract’s stated delivery period is limited to the dates above.

This award shows that Surrey County Council buys specialist local passenger transport for SEND users through a limited, below-threshold competition. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to operate taxis or MPVs seating between one and eight passengers and be able to organise dependable client transport in Surrey. The relevant commercial capability is direct delivery of enhanced-needs journeys, rather than general haulage, vehicle leasing or standard courier work. Surrey Auto Travel’s selection also indicates that a small local transport business can satisfy this type of council requirement. Providers should therefore be able to demonstrate suitable vehicles, practical local coverage and the operational capacity to deliver recurring passenger journeys for the council’s SEND transport service.
