Summary of the contracting process

Northumbria University has completed a procurement process for concrete repair work on the Ellison A-E buildings in Newcastle upon Tyne. The process, titled "T23/0114 - Ellison A - E - Category C Remedial Works," was conducted under the NEPO 207 Construction Works Framework and involved conducting a mini-competition among 10 suppliers. The project, which addresses sudden façade defects identified in Summer 2023, involved the installation of scaffolding and safety netting, followed by detailed structural surveys and subsequent remedial work. The contract, valued initially at £222,831.00 and later adjusted to £316,928.98, was awarded to T Manners & Sons Ltd, and spanned from 1st August 2024 to 30th September 2024, with significant health and safety measures being implemented due to the urgent nature of the defects.

This tender offers substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in concrete repair and structural safety solutions who can demonstrate expertise in urgent and complex repair work. Companies adept in handling large-scale, high-risk projects and those familiar with industry frameworks like NEPO will find this contract particularly fitting. The collaboration with Northumbria University and the requirement for advanced repair techniques and safety installations signal a high-value project with potential for further similar contracts in the future, fostering long-term growth and visibility for experienced and capable suppliers.

Notice Title

GB-Newcastle upon Tyne: T23/0114 - Ellison A - E - Category C Remedial Works

Notice Description

NOTE: This notice was updated on 07 October 2024 for the following reason: Original contract value was PS222,831.00. This value has increased to PS316,928.98 due to the following. At the start of the current phase of works, the contractor surveyed the Ellison facades and undertook hammer testing to the green tiles and vertical concrete sections. A number of cracked tiles and loose tiles were identified with the proposed method of repair to be an epoxy resin injection in and behind the tiles to ensure adhesion to the masonry behind. Following agreement on the repair method, the contractor has removed several of the green tiles to Ellison C & D on the quad side. It then became apparent the ease of removal as well as the original form of construction being a basic 'dot & dob' of concrete with a c.1" void between the tile and the masonry. This has subsequently ruled out this repair method and has raised additional H&S concerns regarding the adhesion of the tiles throughout the Ellison Blocks and the subsequent risk of the dot & dab failing, particularly where moisture has been entering the structure . Our Structural Engineers (Fairhurst) have advised that until a longer-term re-cladding scheme for the blocks is implemented, that we maintain existing exclusion zones and that we install fall arrest netting to the tiled bays throughout the north facing elevation of Ellison D. Furthermore, amendment allows for the the urgent make safe at weekend due to the urgent H&S nature of this, and price for the netting as a variation under the existing JCT contract as well as additional work identified further. Finally it has been noted that the latchway mansafe fall protection systems is missing. The mansafe system is needed to carry out the netting works and requires a new latchway and training for T Manners to complete the work.(There was a sudden facade defect on Ellison Building A in the summer of 2023. The area was immediately made safe and scaffolding and catchment netting erected. Shortly thereafter, structural surveys were instructed. The outcome was a list of recommendations for remedial repairs, and the defects were categorised under various risk levels depending on the severity and level of risk. The works for this contract are defined as Category C Remedial Works and Surveys on Ellison A - E buildings.) Additional information: Tender was conducted as a mini competition from NEPO 207 Construction Works Framework Lot 1 to 10 suppliers.
