Summary of the contracting process

Tees Valley Combined Authority, working through Middlesbrough Development Corporation, procured scaffolding works for the Crown Building. The requirement covers additional scaffolding, netting and boarding, together with inspections, a pavement licence, traffic management for installation, design and permits. This is a combined access, temporary works and compliance package rather than a simple equipment hire requirement. The principal work is the design, provision and erection of scaffolding structures, with associated equipment and installation services. Businesses should therefore be able to coordinate site access, safe installation, inspection arrangements, public-realm permissions and traffic controls alongside supplying the physical scaffolding. The procurement relates to one lot and the work is centred on the Crown Building.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. The award was made to JMAC Industrial and Access Group Ltd on 20 July 2026. The contract was signed on 6 August 2026 and runs from 11 August 2026 to 10 February 2027, with an option to extend for six months until 10 August 2027. Its value is £90,000 excluding VAT, or £108,000 including VAT. The award covers the single lot and is classified as works. The selected supplier is an SME. Evaluation was conducted as a direct appointment rather than through a competitive tender, so no comparative award criteria or bid evaluation weighting is reported for this procurement.

For a supplier that did not secure this contract, the award shows demand from Tees Valley Combined Authority for an integrated scaffolding package supporting a named building project. A credible future supplier would need to provide and erect additional scaffolding, netting and boarding, and manage inspections throughout delivery. It would also need practical capability in scaffolding design, installation planning, permits and pavement licensing, together with traffic management for works affecting access or public space. The requirement suits an industrial access or scaffolding business able to combine site operations with technical and administrative coordination, rather than a supplier offering only standalone hire equipment. The appointment of an SME indicates that this scale of package can be delivered by a focused specialist with suitable capacity and relevant experience.
