UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Northumberland County Council has awarded a contract for the refurbishment of a family hub facility at Bellingham School, Hexham, under the title "NCC1629 Bellingham Family Hub." This contract falls within the "works" category, specifically refurbishment work, and is situated in the UKC21 region of the United Kingdom. The procurement process was conducted using an open methodology, and the contract was awarded to Ashbrook Construction Services Limited. The contract became active on 5th January 2026 and will conclude on 30th March 2026, with a gross contract value of £272,221.24. The procurement process is marked as complete, having transitioned from the tendering phase initiated on 30th July 2025, with key awards finalised by 19th December 2025.

This tender offers significant opportunities for SMEs in the construction and refurbishment sectors, particularly those equipped to handle medium-scale projects below the threshold for open competition. Businesses focusing on refurbishing public facilities can leverage this opportunity to showcase their expertise and secure a sub-central government contract. With the quality-to-price award criteria split of 35% quality and 65% price, companies that can provide cost-effective yet high-quality services are well-positioned to thrive in this competitive landscape. The project's completion within the specified time frame may also position firms for future bids with Northumberland County Council and similar public sector buyers.
