The contracting process for the refurbishment of Customs House was managed by South Tyneside Council, with the project located in the North East of England, United Kingdom. This contract, titled "Customs House Refurbishment," falls under the industry category of construction work. Following a selective procurement method, as a call-off from a framework agreement, the award was made to GMI GROUP LTD on 24 June 2025. The contract period extends from 25 June 2025 to 31 December 2025. The tendering stage was completed by 21 May 2025, with the procurement valued at £73,561.

This tender presents a significant growth opportunity particularly for businesses involved in the construction sector, with a focus on refurbishment projects. Companies that are SMEs could have been well-suited to compete, given that the suitability criteria included eligibility for small and medium enterprises, though it was not open to VCSEs. Businesses that are either current members of the NEPO Framework or have the ability to partner with framework participants would stand a favourable chance in similar future procurements.
