Procurement strategy and governance

The following documents are the foundations on which the Procurement team works:

Procurement and Contract Standing Orders

Our Standing Orders set out the rules by which we spend money on the supplies, services and works we need to deliver our services to the people of Surrey. This is an important document as it forms part of the Council's Constitution and has been produced as part of our approach to the way we buy things.

Read Part 5 of the Council's constitution.

Terms and conditions

All our orders are covered by our purchasing terms and conditions which are available online.

Supplier Code of Conduct

The Council believes that its supply chain plays a vital role in making a positive contribution to its communities and society. Procuring in an ethical, fair, responsible and sustainable way which allows us to work with successful bidders to align with our policy objectives is a priority. The Council's Supplier Code of Conduct embeds these policy objectives and provides a detailed expectation of our supply chain.
