Summary of the contracting process

Newcastle City Council intends to procure re-roofing works for low-rise blocks across Newcastle upon Tyne. This is a construction works requirement, covering the replacement of roofs on council housing or other low-rise buildings across the city. The council is the public-sector buyer and will use the completed works to maintain or improve the condition and weather protection of these buildings. The procurement is relevant to roofing contractors, building contractors and specialist construction firms able to undertake re-roofing programmes across multiple low-rise sites. The wider delivery location is recorded as the United Kingdom, while the procurement description identifies the work as being carried out across Newcastle upon Tyne.

This procurement is at the planning stage: the council has announced an intention to procure, but has not yet invited tenders. It expects to use an open procedure under the Procurement Act 2023. The planned procurement has one lot and is above the relevant threshold. The estimated value is £6.6 million excluding VAT, or £7.9 million including VAT. The council expects the next notice to be published on 12 October 2026. The anticipated contract period is from 8 February 2027 to 31 January 2030. The lot is planned and is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The stated requirement is for low-rise roofing works across the city.

This procurement should suit roofing and construction businesses with the workforce, site management and practical capacity to deliver a multi-site re-roofing programme over several years. It may be relevant to established regional contractors, specialist roofing firms and smaller businesses able to organise delivery across multiple low-rise blocks, either independently or through a suitable delivery arrangement. The buyer has expressly identified the requirement as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so participation is not limited to the largest national contractors. Businesses should prepare evidence of relevant re-roofing and construction experience, safe and reliable site delivery, and the capacity to manage work across Newcastle upon Tyne. No specific accreditation or technical standard is identified at this planning stage.
