Summary of the contracting process

North Tyneside Council procured structural works for Phase 2 of the Fordley Estate project. The work falls within construction works and materials, with delivery in the North East of England. The requirement is focused on structural construction rather than general building supplies or unrelated estate services. The council is the buyer, and the selected contractor, MGM Ltd, is based in Gateshead. This project provides a clear example of the council’s demand for structural works on an estate development. The procurement was run as a competition under a framework agreement, rather than as a standalone open tender.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to MGM Ltd on 23 September 2026. The awarded value is £365,000. The contract period runs from 5 October to 5 December 2026. The council used a selective process as a call-off from a framework agreement, following a mini-competition. The tender response deadline was 28 August 2026. The requirement was classed as works and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The recorded award covers one supplier and the structural works for Phase 2 of the Fordley Estate. No separate evaluation criteria are recorded in the procurement details.

For suppliers preparing to compete for a comparable requirement from North Tyneside Council, this award demonstrates demand for a defined package of structural works on an estate project, delivered over a short, concentrated construction period. A credible competitor would need proven capacity to undertake structural construction, manage site delivery in the North East and complete work to the programme required for a phased development. MGM Ltd, a small or medium-sized business based in Gateshead, won through a mini-competition under a framework agreement. Suppliers seeking similar work should therefore consider whether they can qualify for relevant frameworks and respond competitively to call-offs, rather than relying only on open tender opportunities. The award provides a concrete example of the scale and type of structural work this buyer procures.
