About the buyer

Surrey County Council buys as a local government organisation, with procurement led by its own Director of Procurement. Suppliers register on the Proactis Supplier Network, the e-sourcing portal used for major tenders and requests for quotation. Registered suppliers can express interest and submit bids for live opportunities directly through that portal. The same Proactis system manages contracts, purchase orders and invoices once a contract is awarded. Larger procurements are advertised through the Find a Tender service under the Procurement Act 2023. The Surrey-i website separately lists the council's live contracts register for suppliers to check ongoing work.

UK local government drives £140bn in annual procurement, led by social protection (£66.6bn) and education (£57.1bn).

Over the past 5 years, most of Surrey County Council's contract awards have been in transport services, architectural and engineering services and business services.
