Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council is planning a procurement process for adult instructed advocacy services, focusing on statutory and discretionary health and social work services, with locations specified in Reigate and surrounding regions (UKJ25 and UKJ26). The process is currently in the planning stage, as of 22nd May 2025, under the procurement category 'services', and is governed by the legal bases set out in the UK legislation 2023/54. The contract is considered a "light touch" regime and is slated to commence on 1st July 2027, running through to 30th June 2031. A future notice about the tender is expected by 1st January 2027.

This procurement offers significant growth opportunities for businesses in the health and social work services sector, particularly those with expertise in providing advocacy services for adults. Suitable candidates may include organisations experienced in navigating public sector contracts, especially those familiar with the "light touch" regime requirements in the UK. Participating in this tender allows businesses to establish or strengthen their service offerings within the UKJ26 region, expanding their portfolios and networks within Surrey's sub-central government frameworks.
