Summary of the contracting process

Surrey Heath Borough Council procured hybrid mail services for its Revenues and Benefits function. The requirement combines electronic mail software and postal services, covering the preparation, processing and distribution of council communications through a hybrid digital and physical delivery service. The buying organisation is Surrey Heath Borough Council, based in Camberley, and the service supports its local-authority revenues and benefits activity, with delivery across the United Kingdom. This is a public-sector service requirement rather than a supply of physical goods or construction work. It is relevant to providers that combine secure electronic document handling, mail production and postal fulfilment within one managed service.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 26 May 2026 to GREENS PRINTING SERVICES LIMITED. The council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 26 May 2026 and runs from 1 June 2026 to 31 May 2027. Its stated value is £130,000 excluding VAT, or £156,000 including VAT. The council has a renewal option for one further 12-month period, allowing the arrangement to run until 31 May 2028. The award covers the single requirement for hybrid mail services, classified as services, and the supplier’s award is recorded as active.

This procurement demonstrates established demand from a borough council for an integrated hybrid-mail operation supporting Revenues and Benefits communications. A competing supplier would need to provide both the electronic and physical sides of the service: reliable software or systems for handling outgoing correspondence, together with document production, mailing and postal distribution. The requirement favours an operator able to manage a complete workflow rather than a standalone printer, software vendor or ordinary postal carrier. The selected supplier is recorded as an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a focused specialist rather than only a large national group. Relevant capability lies in dependable, repeatable public-sector correspondence fulfilment at council scale.
