Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council commissioned a leadership development programme for the Made Smarter South East Programme. The work is to design and deliver training that strengthens leadership capability across participating organisations and supports their strategic priorities. It is a learning and development service, classified as technical training. Delivery covers Surrey and East Sussex. The requirement concerns leadership development for organisations taking part in the regional Made Smarter programme, rather than general training provision.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to UEA Consulting Limited. The council used a below-threshold quotation process. The contract was signed on 28 September 2026 and runs from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its value is £124,600 excluding VAT (£151,680 including VAT). The procurement was divided into one lot, covering the leadership development programme. The published information describes the requested work and seeks suitably qualified learning and development suppliers, but does not set out a separate scoring or award methodology.

For a future requirement of this kind, credible suppliers will need to show they can design and deliver a high-quality leadership development programme for organisations with different needs, while linking the learning to participants’ strategic priorities. Relevant learning and development expertise and the ability to strengthen leadership capability across each organisation are central to the requirement. The award demonstrates demand from Surrey County Council for a tailored programme serving the Made Smarter South East participants, delivered across Surrey and East Sussex. Suppliers should be able to provide a programme at this scale and manage delivery across multiple attending organisations. The selected provider was UEA Consulting Limited.
