Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council has completed the procurement process for the "Countryside Services Framework," aimed at providing a wide range of Countryside Services to support the Environment, Transport, and Infrastructure directorate, including the Highways department. The framework encompasses services on public highway verges, public rights of way, and other countryside sites in the South East region of the United Kingdom. This open procurement procedure, with an estimated value of £7,500,000, culminated in an award date on 1 April 2024, with the contract period running until 31 March 2028. The procurement was open to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs), making it inclusive for different business scales.

The awarded contract presents substantial opportunities for business growth, specifically for companies specialising in grounds maintenance services. Poulsom Plant Hire, an SME, has been granted the contract, indicating a favourable environment for similar-sized businesses and those capable of delivering countryside service infrastructures. This framework contract offers extended engagement over four years, providing stable and recurring work for qualified businesses interested in long-term governmental projects within the public sector. The inclusion of a broad range of activities across various countryside sites can appeal to diverse service providers, fostering partnership and growth potential in the environment and infrastructure sectors.
