## 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. The service falls within passenger transport services and is identified as Lot 2 of the council’s Client Transport Services programme. The requirement is for transport provision tailored to passengers with enhanced needs; the published scope does not describe particular routes, journey schedules or passenger volumes. Surrey County Council is the buying organisation, and the supplier is based in Surbiton. The procurement concerns transport services rather than vehicle supply or construction.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Zedcarz Limited. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. The contract was signed on 23 October 2026 and runs from 2 November 2026 to 31 July 2029. Its stated value is £93,042.86. The procurement was divided into lots, with this award covering the enhanced-needs taxi and MPV transport lot. The recorded award is active, and the contract is active. The published information identifies the transport requirement and selected supplier but does not set out an evaluation formula or detailed eligibility conditions. The award is for one supplier; no separate award value or period is reported for any other lot.

This award shows Surrey County Council buys specialist passenger transport for SEND passengers using taxis and MPVs, including vehicles with capacity for up to eight passengers. A credible competitor for this requirement would need to provide suitable vehicles and dependable transport operations for passengers with enhanced needs, and demonstrate the ability to meet the council’s service requirements consistently. The selected provider is a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that this contract was delivered by an SME rather than a large national operator. The limited-competition route is also relevant to suppliers assessing how the council has bought this service. The requirement is specifically SEND transport; general taxi work without the capability to serve passengers with enhanced needs would not, on its own, establish a strong fit.
