LIBRARY DELIVERY SERVICE CONTRACT AWARD pdf icon PDF 186 KB

    • Share this item

    The Surrey Library Service manages library facilities at some 52 public libraries, 10 Community Partnerships libraries and 4 prison libraries. The Library Delivery Service is an operational function that enables books & display materials to be shared and distributed county wide. By sharing resources in this way, as opposed to providing each site with its own material, the Service is able to reduce spending considerably.

     

    This report provides details of the procurement process, including the results of the evaluation process, and, in conjunction with the Part 2 report demonstrates why the recommended contract award delivers best value for money.

     

    Decision:

    That the contract be awarded to Global Services Group for the provision of the Library Delivery Service. This is a three year contract with the option to extend for two further periods of up to one year each. The supplier will provide a dedicated delivery service exclusively for Surrey libraries.
