Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Surrey commissioned a briefing and feasibility exercise for the Chertsey Evidence Store. The requirement concerns works associated with an evidence-store facility, including consideration of building structures, building stone and construction work for research and testing facilities. Delivery is in Chertsey, Surrey. The commissioning organisation is a sub-central public authority responsible for policing and crime functions. The requirement is focused on early-stage assessment and feasibility work for this specific evidence-storage site, rather than a general construction programme. Businesses with relevant capability in architectural briefing, feasibility studies, specialist public-sector facilities or construction planning would find the subject matter most relevant.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to CORSTORPHINE + WRIGHT LIMITED. It was made as a direct award under the SCF framework, using a below-threshold procedure without competition. The award covers one lot. The contract was signed on 11 August 2026 and runs from 12 August 2026 to 13 October 2026. Its value is £18,000 excluding VAT and £21,600 including VAT. The award is recorded as active and the contract as active. The published outcome identifies the supplier and confirms that the exercise was commissioned through a framework route rather than an open competitive tender.

This outcome indicates demand from Surrey’s policing and crime authority for specialist advice before changes or development at an evidence-storage facility. A credible future competitor would need to demonstrate experience in briefing and feasibility work for secure, operationally sensitive public buildings, together with the ability to translate user requirements into practical construction or facility options. Relevant capability may include architectural and multidisciplinary design expertise, assessment of building structures and materials, planning for research or testing environments, and clear reporting for public-sector decision makers. Familiarity with framework procurement and the ability to deliver a focused exercise within a short, defined programme would also be commercially important.
