Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the construction works at Blaydon West Primary School has been completed by the Department for Education, located at Sanctuary Buildings, 20 Great Smith Street, London. The procurement falls under the industry category of construction work for school buildings, using a selective procurement method as part of a framework agreement. The contract, valued at £985,183.49, commenced on 17th March 2026 and is set to conclude on 4th December 2026. It covers multiple regions across the United Kingdom, including the North East, North West, and London, among others. The procurement was in the award stage, with the contract awarded to Tilbury Douglas on 17th March 2026.

This tender offers opportunities primarily for large-scale construction companies capable of delivering school building projects across various regions. Although the procurement method was selective, businesses with existing framework agreements in education sector construction are well-suited for such opportunities. Those aiming to establish or expand their presence in school construction within the UK would find this type of procurement beneficial for business growth. Small and medium enterprises may find this tender challenging due to its unsuitability designation, which favours larger businesses.
