Summary of the contracting process

The Tees Valley Combined Authority (TVCA), acting as the buying organisation, has completed the procurement process for "Grant Managed Support" services, focusing on the management, approval, and monitoring of two UKSPF programmes. This public procurement, categorised under project-management services (excluding construction), operates in the UKC region, covering the United Kingdom. The procurement was conducted using a direct method below the threshold without competition. The contract was awarded on 10th September 2025, with a contract period from 15th September 2025 to 31st May 2026, and potential extensions as per future directives by early 2026. The contract involves a gross amount of £126,500.4.

This tender presents significant business opportunities, especially for SMEs specialising in project-management services, apart from construction work. Businesses that can provide robust governance, compliance, and monitoring, particularly under dynamic and potentially changing policy landscapes, would be well-suited to benefit. Opportunities for expansion and increased resource allocation may arise from potential new delivery activities and additional grant processes linked to the evolving Business Growth Plan. This could lead to further involvement in grant administration and increased capacity to manage substantial government-linked projects efficiently.
