Public sector organisations in Surrey, including Surrey County Council, Surrey Police and University of Surrey, are launching a shared online portal to advertise contracts. The Supply to Surrey website is due to launch in autumn with an aim to increase the number of contracts being awarded to local companies, as the council has a pledge that 60% of spending is to go to the local community. This site is similar to BuildSurrey, a website set up to encourage suppliers in the construction industry to bid for contracts which has now been used for £10 million worth of deals.

Surrey council achieves savings of £83 million through contract renegotiating
