Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council commissioned a bespoke wayfinding scheme for Cranleigh Village Centre. The requirement covers the engineering, manufacture and installation of signage, including the production of signs designed for the village-centre environment and their installation at the relevant locations. The procurement is primarily for signage goods, with associated engineering and installation services. The buying organisation is Surrey County Council, a local authority based in Reigate, and the work is for Cranleigh in Surrey. The requirement was arranged as a single package covering the complete wayfinding scheme, rather than separate packages for design-related engineering, sign manufacture and installation. It is relevant to signage manufacturers and specialist contractors able to provide an integrated supply-and-install service for bespoke public-realm wayfinding projects.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. One supplier, HORNBECK LTD, was selected for the single lot. The contract was signed on 11 June 2026 and runs from 15 June 2026 to 14 June 2027. Its value is £33,872 excluding VAT, or £40,646 including VAT. The awarded requirement is classified as signage. The evaluation concerned the supplier’s ability to deliver the specified wayfinding requirement through the relevant goods and associated services; the available procurement record does not state a separate scoring breakdown or award weighting. The contract is active, and the tender itself is recorded as complete. This outcome identifies HORNBECK LTD as the appointed supplier for Surrey County Council’s Cranleigh Village Centre wayfinding scheme.

This procurement is useful market evidence for businesses supplying bespoke signage and public-realm wayfinding to local authorities. A credible competitor would need to combine engineering capability, sign manufacture and installation rather than offer only one part of the requirement. The successful supplier is an SME, indicating that the work can be delivered by a focused specialist rather than only a large national contractor. Relevant strengths would include producing durable, tailored signage, coordinating manufacture with site installation, and managing delivery for a village-centre environment. Suppliers with an integrated supply-and-install model, practical project management and experience meeting public-sector specifications would be well placed to compete for comparable requirements from Surrey County Council when this type of need next comes to market.
