## Summary

Surrey County Council procured passenger transport services for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The requirement covers standard transport using taxis or multi-purpose vehicles carrying between one and eight passengers. The service is intended to provide client transport arranged by the council, with journeys delivered in Surrey. This is a transport service rather than a vehicle supply, construction or general logistics contract. The relevant service classification is CPV 60000000, transport services excluding waste transport. The buyer is Surrey County Council, a local public authority. The procurement concerned one service requirement under the council’s Client Transport Services programme.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. Surrey County Council selected Surrey Auto Travel, an SME, as the supplier. The award was made on 18 September 2026 and the contract was signed on the same date. The active contract runs from 21 September 2026 to 20 September 2027. Its value is £128.43 including tax, and the procurement was below the applicable threshold. The tender used a light-touch regime and covered one lot for standard SEND taxi or MPV transport. The published outcome records the award as active and the contract as active; no separate evaluation weighting or scoring basis is stated.

This outcome shows that Surrey County Council uses a local, below-threshold limited-competition route for relatively small-scale SEND passenger transport requirements. A credible future competitor would need to provide taxi or MPV transport for groups of up to eight passengers, operate reliably across Surrey, and understand the practical needs of children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities. The selected supplier’s SME status indicates that the requirement can be delivered by a smaller transport business rather than only by a national operator. Relevant preparation would include maintaining suitable vehicles, dependable driver and scheduling capacity, and experience delivering sensitive, routine passenger journeys for a public-sector client.
