## Summary

Surrey County Council procured standard taxi and multi-purpose vehicle transport for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), using vehicles with capacity for one to eight passengers. The requirement is part of the council’s client transport services and covers passenger transport rather than vehicle supply. The named lot concerned standard transport by taxi or MPV. The buyer is Surrey County Council, based in Reigate. The service is associated with the council’s SEND transport provision; no specific collection points, destinations or delivery locations are identified in the process information.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to AK carz Ltd, a small and medium-sized enterprise. The council used a below-threshold limited competition. The award is recorded as active, and the contract was signed on 6 October 2026. The contract period runs from 7 October 2026 to 30 July 2027. Its value is £9,299.47 including VAT. The process covered one lot for standard taxi or MPV transport, with capacity for one to eight passengers. No award criteria or evaluation weighting is recorded in the available process details, so the basis used to select the supplier cannot be described further.

The award indicates that Surrey County Council buys SEND transport using standard taxis and MPVs, including vehicles able to carry between one and eight passengers. A supplier seeking to compete for a comparable requirement would need to provide suitable passenger vehicles and reliably deliver transport for children and young people with SEND. The selected provider was an SME, showing that a smaller transport operator was able to secure this individual contract. The scale of this contract was modest and limited to a single transport lot, so operators with capacity to service a defined, relatively small requirement may be relevant competitors. This is evidence of demand for this specific service from Surrey County Council, rather than a broader requirement for general passenger transport.
