## Summary

Surrey County Council procured enhanced-needs transport for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), using taxis or multi-purpose vehicles with one to eight passenger seats and a passenger assistant. The service is for transporting clients who need additional support, with the assistant travelling with them. The contract title identifies this as Lot 2 of the council’s wider client transport programme. The buying organisation is Surrey County Council, based in Reigate, and the supplier is based in Horsham. The procurement describes the service as transport rather than vehicle supply; its scope centres on providing supported journeys using the specified vehicle types.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Surrey County Council used a limited competition below the applicable threshold. Forge Mobility Services Limited was awarded the contract. The contract was signed on 13 October 2026 and runs from 19 October 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £44,582.14 including tax. The award covers the enhanced-needs taxi/MPV transport lot. The published award data identifies the service and selected supplier but does not set out an evaluation formula or specific eligibility thresholds. The contract period is shorter than the wider programme dates in the title; the dates here are those recorded for this awarded contract.

For suppliers considering comparable future work for Surrey County Council, this award indicates demand for SEND transport using taxis or MPVs seating up to eight passengers, with a passenger assistant included. A credible provider would need to organise supported journeys for passengers with enhanced needs and provide both suitable vehicles and accompanying staff. The successful supplier was a large mobility-services company, suggesting the buyer selected an established operator for this requirement, although the award does not state a minimum fleet size or particular accreditation. The scope is a defined transport service rather than vehicle procurement, so relevant experience would include dependable passenger transport operations and the ability to staff journeys with an assistant. The contract provides a concrete example of the council’s purchasing route and service requirements.
