Summary of the contracting process

Newcastle City Council procured a principal contractor to replace the automatic opening vents (AOVs) at Mill House, Spital Tongues, Newcastle upon Tyne. The renewal works cover each floor and the roof area, as detailed in the project specification. This is a building-services and ventilation installation project, delivered at the Mill House site in Newcastle. The requirement was classified as building construction work in the original procurement and as heating, ventilation and air-conditioning installation work at award. The council was the buyer and sought a contractor to carry out the works, rather than a supplier of equipment alone.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following an open competition below the applicable threshold. Global HSE Solutions Ltd was selected. The award was made on 2 October 2026, for £446,034.79 excluding VAT (£535,241.75 including VAT). The award period runs from 16 October 2026 to 1 October 2027; the original lot set a contract period from 30 June 2026 to 31 May 2029. The original estimated value was £400,000 excluding VAT (£480,000 including VAT). There was one lot, marked suitable for SMEs. Evaluation placed 70% of the weighting on the specification and 30% on price. One bid reached the final stage.

This award shows Newcastle City Council buying building-services renewal work focused on automatic opening vents across a multi-storey building and its roof. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to demonstrate the ability to act as principal contractor and deliver coordinated ventilation replacement works throughout an occupied or multi-level building, including roof-level work. The specification carried substantially more evaluation weight than price, so evidence of a strong technical response and a clear method for meeting the stated requirements would matter more than a low price alone. The successful supplier was an SME, and the competition attracted one final-stage bid, indicating that a smaller specialist contractor was capable of meeting this requirement. The relevant market is ventilation and building-services contractors with suitable project delivery capacity.
