Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Gateshead College procured mechanical and electrical capital works across three of its campuses in Gateshead, for delivery during the summer works period. The requirement covers mechanical installations and associated electrical capital works within college buildings, under the works category. It was structured as a call-off contract for building internal fit-out and maintenance requirements, using the college’s established purchasing route for mechanical and electrical work. The delivery area is Gateshead in the North East of England. The buying organisation is Gateshead College, based at its Baltic Campus in Gateshead. The requirement is relevant to contractors able to deliver coordinated mechanical and electrical building works across multiple education sites.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to HLA Services Limited on 22 June 2026. The awarded value is £777,100. The contract period runs from 29 June 2026 to 1 September 2026. The tender deadline was 3 June 2026 at noon. The route was a selective further competition under the YPO Dynamic Purchasing System for Buildings Internal Fit-out and Maintenance, mechanical and electrical lot. The contract was evaluated through that further-competition process. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Gateshead College is the buyer, and HLA Services Limited is the selected supplier.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates a substantial, concentrated requirement for mechanical and electrical capital works in an education setting. A credible future competitor would need to coordinate both mechanical installations and electrical works, manage delivery across three college campuses, and complete building projects within a defined seasonal programme. Experience of internal fit-out and maintenance work would be directly relevant, as would the operational capacity to mobilise quickly and manage several sites under one call-off. The procurement route also indicates that businesses seeking similar work should understand dynamic purchasing systems and be prepared to compete through a further competition rather than relying on a standalone open tender.
