Summary of the contracting process

Durham County Council has completed a procurement process for a Pre Contract Service Agreement focusing on the delivery of 25 homes at the former Easington Primary School site. Categorised under "Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services," this project was awarded through a selective procurement method, specifically, a call-off from a framework agreement under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The procurement was classified as a service with a total value of £320,000. Located in the North East of England, the contract scope spans from 30th July 2025 to 1st September 2026. The procurement process reached the award stage on 15th August 2025, with "T Manners and Sons" being the selected supplier.

This tender presents a significant business opportunity, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in construction-related services.
