Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "Askew Road - NWL Connection" was conducted by Gateshead Borough Council, a sub-central government public authority in the United Kingdom. The contract involves temporary connections to an existing Northumbrian Water combined sewer and installing pipework to a Gateshead Council manhole. This project falls under the "works" category, specifically dealing with sewer pipes and sewerage work, which was executed in the region of Gateshead (UKC22). The procurement method employed was direct, as part of a below-threshold process without competition. The contract was signed on 17th July 2025, with the work period scheduled between 23rd July and 20th August 2025, and a contract value of £63,857.60.

This tender offers substantial growth opportunities, particularly for construction businesses specialising in civil engineering and infrastructure projects, focusing on sewer systems and public utility frameworks. ESH CONSTRUCTION LIMITED, a large-scale supplier located in Bowburn, successfully won the contract. Companies with similar expertise in utility connections and infrastructure maintenance would find future opportunities in such tenders, particularly those with experience in working with public authorities like Gateshead Borough Council. Participation in such direct tendering processes, facilitated without competition, can facilitate faster turnaround and engagement, offering niche market growth in regional public works.
