## Summary

Surrey County Council commissioned enhanced-needs transport for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The service uses taxis or multi-purpose vehicles with capacity for one to eight passengers, accompanied by a passenger assistant. It is a passenger transport service, rather than a vehicle supply contract. The requirement is identified as Lot 2 of the council’s client transport programme. The procurement data does not identify particular routes, pickup points or delivery locations, so the defined scope is the transport service and passenger-assistant provision for SEND journeys.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition. STL was selected and the contract was signed on 12 October 2026. The contract runs from 13 October 2026 to 31 July 2027 and is valued at £36,375 including VAT. The published procurement information does not set out an evaluation weighting or selection criteria, and gives no further lot-level terms. The contract covers enhanced-needs taxi or MPV transport, with a passenger assistant, for one to eight passengers. This was a single awarded lot; STL is the named supplier.

For suppliers assessing similar future work from Surrey County Council, this award demonstrates demand for SEND passenger transport using taxis or MPVs, with passenger assistants included in delivery. Credible competitors would need to provide vehicles suited to journeys carrying between one and eight passengers and arrange appropriate passenger-assistant cover. The requirement is focused on enhanced-needs transport rather than general passenger services, so relevant experience supporting children and young people with SEND would help demonstrate fit. The limited-competition route used for this below-threshold contract is also relevant to understanding how the council procured this requirement. The award provides a concrete example of the council buying a defined, relatively small-scale transport service through a named supplier.
