## Summary

Surrey County Council procured enhanced-needs transport for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The service uses taxis or multi-purpose vehicles carrying between one and eight passengers, with a passenger assistant accompanying journeys. It is a transport service rather than a vehicle supply contract, and the selected supplier is Nivo Mobility. The requirement forms one lot within the council’s wider Client Transport Services programme. The buyer is Surrey County Council, and the transport serves its SEND client transport needs. The published description identifies the vehicle types, passenger capacity and need for an accompanying passenger assistant, defining a specialist passenger transport service for suppliers able to provide assisted journeys.

The procurement is complete and awarded to Nivo Mobility, which holds an active award and contract. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 9 October 2026, with service running from 12 October 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £46,928.57 including tax. The award is for the enhanced-needs taxi or MPV service with a passenger assistant, under the SEND transport lot. The procurement record gives no separate scoring or evaluation criteria, so the basis for selecting Nivo Mobility beyond the limited competition is not detailed. This outcome shows the council placed a defined transport requirement with one supplier for the stated contract period.

For a future requirement of this kind, credible suppliers would need to deliver reliable taxi or MPV journeys for passengers with enhanced needs, accommodate groups of up to eight passengers, and provide a passenger assistant as part of the service. The awarded contract shows that Surrey County Council buys SEND transport as a defined service requirement through a limited competition, rather than procuring vehicles alone. Nivo Mobility, a small or medium-sized enterprise, was selected, indicating that this requirement was deliverable by an SME; it does not establish a formal SME preference. Operators with suitable vehicles, capacity to coordinate assisted journeys and relevant experience in accessible or specialist passenger transport would be well placed to compete if the council returns this specific service to market.
