Summary of the contracting process

Northumberland County Council has completed a procurement process for the supply of construction materials and associated items, specifically titled "Material Supply & Stores (STAR & TPPL Materials Framework)." This procurement falls under the category of goods and is designed to address a short-term requirement through a direct award using the STAR & TPPL Materials Framework, with arrangements in place until the end of 2026. Located in the UKC21 region, the procurement process employed a limited method due to extreme urgency, allowing for a direct award without prior publication. The contract, with a value of GBP 1,900,000, was awarded to STARK Building Materials UK Ltd (T/A Jewson Partnership Solutions), and was signed on 2nd March 2026. Although initially complete, one lot was cancelled, which had included options to extend by up to 6 months.

This opportunity presents significant growth prospects for suppliers within the construction materials industry, especially those capable of offering a reliable supply under urgent conditions. Businesses that are well-suited to this type of contract are likely to have a swift operational capacity and the ability to work within established frameworks such as the STAR & TPPL system. Large or established suppliers with a presence in, or ability to deliver to, the UKC21 region, and who can flexibly manage short-term demands, would benefit from engaging with opportunities arising from similar procurement processes.
