Summary of the contracting process

North Tyneside Council commissioned kitchen and bathroom installation works for properties in Backworth, Holystone and Castle Park, in the North East of England. The requirement is categorised as construction works, covering the installation of kitchens and bathrooms and associated construction materials and products. The named buyer is North Tyneside Council. The work is intended for delivery across the three named areas rather than at a single central site. This is a housing-related installation requirement, so relevant businesses are likely to include building contractors, kitchen and bathroom installation specialists, refurbishment firms and construction companies able to coordinate multiple property-based works. The procurement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 22 July 2026 following a mini competition. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement, with tenders due by 13 April 2026 at 12:00. Buston & Maughan Ltd was awarded the contract for £616,000 including the stated GBP currency. The contract period runs from 27 April 2026 to 27 September 2026. The award covers the kitchen and bathroom installation works across Backworth, Holystone and Castle Park. The process was structured as a single requirement, with no separate lot awards reported. The published outcome identifies the selected supplier and confirms the tender status as complete.

For a supplier that did not win, this award demonstrates a defined North Tyneside Council demand for coordinated kitchen and bathroom installation works delivered across several housing locations. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need practical experience in refurbishment and installation, the workforce and site-management capacity to handle multiple properties, and the ability to complete construction works to the buyer’s required programme. Framework participation or access to an appropriate framework route would be commercially important, since this procurement was awarded through a framework call-off and mini competition. The requirement was marked as suitable for SMEs, so a specialist small or medium-sized contractor with dependable installation teams, materials coordination and experience working in occupied or residential settings could be well placed when comparable work returns to market.
