## Summary

Surrey County Council procured enhanced-needs transport by taxi or multi-purpose vehicle for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The service is for vehicles with capacity for one to eight passengers. This is client transport: journeys are arranged to meet the needs of individual service users rather than a general public transport service. The procurement formed part of the council’s wider Client Transport Services programme, with this requirement handled as a distinct lot. The buyer is Surrey County Council, based in Reigate. The data identifies the transport service and vehicle capacity, but does not specify individual routes, passenger numbers or delivery addresses.

The procurement is complete and awarded to XPERT CARS. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 24 September 2026 and runs from 28 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £24,698.57. The award is for enhanced-needs taxi/MPV transport under the SEND client transport programme, recorded as a single lot. No award evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements are set out in the available procurement details, so the basis on which competing offers were assessed cannot be described. The contract is active. The overall programme title refers to 2026–2034, but the specific contract period for this award is the period stated above.

For suppliers considering comparable Surrey County Council requirements, this award shows demand for tailored SEND passenger transport using taxis or multi-purpose vehicles with capacity for up to eight passengers. A credible competitor would need to provide dependable, appropriately sized vehicles and organise journeys around the needs of individual passengers. The selected supplier is a small or medium-sized business, indicating that this contract was deliverable by an SME; the recorded contract value also points to a relatively modest, defined service requirement rather than a large transport network. Experience providing passenger transport and the operational capacity to deliver consistent, needs-led journeys would be relevant strengths. The procurement used limited competition, so suppliers should be prepared for a competitive process that may involve a restricted field of participants.
