Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by Surrey County Council involves a Public Notices Advertising Contract awarded under the ESPO Framework 3A_24 for Advertising Solutions. This selective tender, with a status of "complete," is categorized under the CPV code 79000000, indicative of business services, including law, marketing, consulting, and more, within the South East region of the United Kingdom. With an overall value of £2,600,000, the contract commenced on 1st March 2026 and will be in effect until 28th February 2030. The contract award was formalized on 24th February 2026, with PeopleScout Limited, trading as TMP Worldwide, identified as the supplier. The procurement method was a call-off from a framework agreement.

This tender represents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for companies with capabilities in co-ordinating advertisement placements for statutory notices. While the awarded contract is with a large-scale supplier, smaller businesses with expertise in the specified service areas could leverage such opportunities in future tenders by demonstrating value and niche expertise. Businesses that focus on consulting, marketing, law, and related services, particularly those familiar with local authority regulations and public advertising requirements, would find this type of contract suitable for competitive engagement.
