Summary of the contracting process

The South Tyneside Borough Council has completed the procurement process for providing temporary offices and storage units for large-scale events. The purchasing authority, located in South Shields, aims to secure suitable anti-vandal storage and office units in the entertainment services category within the UKC region. This procurement was processed through a direct award to John Nixon Limited, following the absence of bids on a prior tender framework. The contract period begins on 1st April 2026 and runs until 31st March 2029, with an option for a one-year extension. The contract, valued at £34,166.67 excluding VAT, was signed on 30th March 2026.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in the provision of portable accommodation and storage solutions at mass events, particularly those capable of delivering secure and mobile units. Companies like John Nixon Limited, a large enterprise based in Newcastle Upon Tyne, are ideal candidates due to their current involvement and experience in similar services.
