Summary of the contracting process

North Yorkshire Council procured building construction works for the refurbishment of Studio 2 at Harrogate Convention Centre. The requirement covered the Harrogate venue in Yorkshire and the Humber and was run as a further competition under the Yorbuild3 Medium Works Framework, Lot 1 for medium works. The main work category was building construction, with the refurbishment of an existing convention-centre studio as the stated purpose. This is a construction and refurbishment opportunity rather than a supply-only or professional-services contract. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The named buying organisation is North Yorkshire Council, based at County Hall in Northallerton, with procurement administration also associated with Mercell UK Ltd.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a further competition under the Yorbuild3 Medium Works Framework, Lot 1. The tender deadline was 19 January 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The award was made on 1 April 2026 to Galliford Try, for £9,844,354.80 including the stated GBP currency. The awarded contract period runs from 12 May 2026 to 15 February 2027. The tender records the method as “Other - Other”, alongside the framework further-competition route. The contract is classified as works and the tender status is complete. One supplier is recorded as awarded. The available procurement information does not set out separate lots beyond the framework’s Lot 1 or a detailed scoring breakdown.

For construction contractors, this award demonstrates substantial demand from North Yorkshire Council for medium-scale refurbishment and building works in a public venue. A credible future competitor would need the capacity to manage a sizeable convention-centre refurbishment, coordinate delivery across an occupied or operational public-facing setting where required, and complete building works to an agreed programme. Experience of comparable construction projects, strong project management, commercial control, health and safety systems, quality assurance and reliable supply-chain management would support a competitive position. The procurement route also matters: suppliers would need to understand the Yorbuild3 Medium Works Framework and be capable of participating in its further competitions, including any framework-specific requirements. The recorded SME suitability indicates that smaller firms may be relevant, particularly as specialist or delivery partners.
