Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council commissioned refurbishment works at Guildford Library, 77 North Street, Guildford, Surrey. The project covers improvements to the existing building, including additional meeting rooms, an accessible toilet, replacement fire doors, redecoration, kitchen upgrades, flooring and ceiling work, mechanical and electrical alterations, and repairs to the building fabric. It also includes removing redundant shelving and light boxes from the children’s library, changing existing spaces to improve their functionality, and external paving repairs, handrail extensions and decorative improvements. This is a building refurbishment and construction project (CPV 45000000), rather than a supply-only contract. The works are focused on one public library in Guildford.

The procurement is complete and Management & Construction Services Limited was selected for the contract. The award was made on 25 September 2026. The stated contract period runs from 26 August to 17 October 2026. The recorded award value is £0, so the published figure does not indicate the contract’s commercial scale. The submission deadline was 17 July 2026 at 4pm. The process is identified as a tender, but no specific procedure or evaluation criteria are provided in the procurement details. Surrey County Council marked the works as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is active; there is no indication that it was cancelled or that the contract was terminated.

This award demonstrates a buyer requirement for a main contractor able to coordinate a compact, multi-trade refurbishment within an operating public-service building. A credible competitor when this library requirement returns would need to manage internal alterations alongside building-fabric repairs and external works, with capability across mechanical and electrical changes, accessible facilities, fire-door replacement, finishes, kitchens, floors and ceilings. The scope also calls for careful handling of changes to children’s library spaces and practical site coordination across the building and its grounds. The buyer identified the requirement as suitable for SMEs, suggesting that smaller contractors may be relevant if they can deliver the breadth of work, manage subcontractors where needed and meet the programme and quality demands of a public-sector refurbishment. No specific accreditation or experience threshold is evidenced.
