Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Surrey commissioned design services for the Stokes House building on the ERA Leatherhead site. The requirement covers designs and architectural design services for a building project, delivered in the United Kingdom. The procurement is a single service requirement and sits within the Police and Crime Commissioner’s estates and facilities activity. The buying organisation is a sub-central public authority based in Guildford. The work is relevant to architectural practices, building designers and multidisciplinary design consultancies able to provide architectural design input for the Stokes House development. The requirement was classified under CPV 22314000 for designs and CPV 71220000 for architectural design services. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, indicating that businesses of this scale were considered capable of delivering the service.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Surrey used a direct award under the SCF framework, described as a below-threshold procedure without competition. CORSTORPHINE + WRIGHT LIMITED was selected on 11 August 2026 and the contract was signed on the same date. The award and contract value is £25,000 excluding VAT, or £30,000 including VAT. The awarded service period runs from 24 August 2026 to 30 September 2026. The contract is active. The procurement had one lot, which was completed and awarded to the selected supplier. A scheduled signature milestone was set for 24 August 2026, although the contract record shows signature on 11 August 2026. The evaluation route was the framework’s direct-award mechanism rather than a competitive tender, and the process was below the applicable threshold.

This award indicates demand from Surrey’s policing estate for focused architectural design services supporting a named building project. Businesses considering comparable work for this buyer would need credible architectural design capability, experience producing building designs, and the ability to provide professional services for a defined, short-duration development requirement. Familiarity with public-sector estates work and the SCF framework route would be commercially relevant, because this requirement was placed by direct award through that framework rather than through an open competition. The opportunity was marked as suitable for SMEs, so smaller architectural practices and design consultancies could be credible competitors when similar services return to market. A strong proposition would combine relevant building-project experience, dependable delivery capacity and the ability to meet the buyer’s framework and service requirements.
