Summary of the contracting process

Newcastle City Council procured refurbishment works at St John’s Primary School and Nursery in Newcastle upon Tyne. The work covered the existing school nursery and the caretaker’s house, under a project titled St John’s Primary SEND Nursery Works. This is a building refurbishment and construction requirement, rather than a supply contract or a service. The procurement was categorised as construction work, with the awarded work classified more specifically as special-school construction. The delivery location is in the United Kingdom; the source identifies the city council as buyer but does not give a more precise delivery address for the works.

The procurement is complete: the council selected Clementine Services Ltd and signed an active contract on 1 October 2026. The award was made on 11 June 2026. The contract runs from 1 October to 1 November 2026 and is worth £142,094.18 including VAT (£118,411.82 excluding VAT). The earlier estimated value was £204,000 including VAT (£170,000 excluding VAT). This was a below-threshold open competition. There was one lot, and the published evaluation weighting was 70% price and 30% quality. Eight bids reached the final stage, all from small and medium-sized businesses. Electronic submission was permitted. The contract concerns refurbishment of the nursery and caretaker’s house at St John’s Primary School and Nursery.

For firms competing for comparable school refurbishment work for Newcastle City Council, this award indicates demand for short-duration building works in an operational education setting, including refurbishment of nursery space and a caretaker’s house. A credible competitor would need to show relevant construction and refurbishment experience, capacity to deliver a focused project within a tight programme, and the ability to demonstrate quality while pricing competitively. Small and medium-sized businesses competed successfully in this process, and all eight final-stage bidders were SMEs, so this scale of requirement attracted SME participation. The buyer’s 70% price and 30% quality weighting makes both cost control and a strong, evidenced quality offer material to competitiveness. The selected supplier is a North Tyneside-based SME.
