Summary of the contracting process

Tees Valley Combined Authority commissioned managed support for its UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF) Export programme. The work covered managing grant approvals, issuing approvals and monitoring the programme on the authority’s behalf. This is a grant-management and project-management service rather than a grant for exporters. The award records project-management services (CPV 79421000). The buyer is Tees Valley Combined Authority, serving the Tees Valley. The contract names Tees Global Ltd as the supplier. The programme’s grant approvals and monitoring responsibilities are the focus of the requirement; it is not a general export consultancy commission.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Tees Global Ltd through a direct request for quote, below the applicable threshold and without competition. The contract was signed on 3 December 2025. Its stated period ran from 4 December 2025 to 31 May 2026, with a possible extension to 1 June 2026; the contract record says it was terminated, with completion recorded on 30 September 2026. The reason is classified as contract completed. The contract value was £82,629 excluding VAT (£99,154.80 including VAT). The procurement was a single lot. The award record does not publish evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements.

For suppliers considering similar work for Tees Valley Combined Authority, this award demonstrates demand for hands-on administration of a publicly funded export programme: managing grant applications and approvals, issuing decisions and monitoring delivery. A credible competitor would need to show it can handle grant processes accurately and consistently, maintain clear records, and monitor activity against programme requirements and funding timescales. The delivery scope also includes final monitoring and evaluation, so relevant experience should cover follow-through after funded activity, not just initial assessment. The route used was a below-threshold direct request for quote without competition, and the selected provider was a small or medium-sized business. These are useful indicators of the scale and supplier profile associated with this particular grant-management requirement.
