Summary of the contracting process

Northumberland County Council commissioned consultancy services to support capital roofing projects at Central Primary Upper School and Scremerston Primary School. The work combines design with project management and financial management for the roofing projects, rather than the supply of roofing materials or construction work itself. Delivery is in Northumberland, at the two named schools in the North East of England. The procurement is categorised as services and brings together construction-related consultancy with financial consultancy. The council is the buyer and will use the services to manage its school roofing investment. This is a focused requirement for firms able to advise on and manage roofing capital projects in a school setting.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to AtkinsRéalis UK Ltd. The council used a selective procedure, making a call-off from a framework agreement. The award was made on 29 May 2026. Its value is £53,760, matching the estimated procurement value. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2028. The tender deadline was 28 May 2026 at 12:00. The procurement covered the roofing consultancy requirement for both named schools; the published information does not divide the award into separate school contracts. Small and medium-sized enterprises were considered suitable to take part. The award records the selected supplier and contract period; it does not state a separate evaluation basis.

For suppliers considering similar future requirements from Northumberland County Council, this award demonstrates demand for consultancy covering the design, project management and financial management of capital roofing work at primary schools. A credible competitor would need to offer those connected capabilities and be able to apply them to work in a live school environment. The council considered SMEs suitable, so the requirement was not restricted to large firms. The selected supplier was AtkinsRéalis UK Ltd. The award provides a practical indication of the kind of multidisciplinary consultancy the council has bought for its school estate; firms whose work is limited to roofing installation or materials supply would not match this consultancy scope.
