Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Former Magnet Building Refurbishment Project" at NCG Newcastle campus involves the Newcastle College Group as the buying organisation. The tender, classified under the industry category "Refurbishment of run-down buildings," was completed with a contract awarded on 23rd July 2025. The project, valued at £4,000,000, will take place in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, England. The procurement method used was a "call-off from a framework agreement," and the contract period spans from 1st September 2025 to 30th September 2026. The awarding process is complete, and the project contract was granted to Robertson Construction Group Limited.

The refurbishment project opens substantial opportunities for businesses involved in construction, particularly those with a focus on building refurbishments. Small and medium-sized enterprises, given their suitability for such contracts, may find opportunities despite the award's specifics indicating the presence of a large supplier. Companies with experience in public sector projects can explore potential collaboration with large construction firms or prepare for similar future tenders managed by education institutions like NCG. This presents a growth avenue for businesses capable of aligning with framework agreements and participating in extensive refurbishment projects.
