UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Northumberland County Council is seeking a contractor for beach management works at Newbiggin Bay in Northumberland. The requirement covers beach management operations, specifically sand reprofiling and sand recycling, classified as construction work. The appointed contractor will carry out these works within Newbiggin Bay, supporting the management and maintenance of the beach environment. This is a works opportunity rather than a supply or consultancy requirement. It is suitable for businesses that undertake coastal, marine, beach or civil engineering works and can deliver practical sand-management operations on site. The council is the public-sector buyer and the work is focused on a single location in Newbiggin Bay.

The procurement has reached tender: Northumberland County Council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The enquiry deadline was 16 September 2026 at 11:59, and the tender submission deadline was 16 September 2026 at 12:00. Electronic submission was allowed. The single lot has an estimated value of £67,500 excluding VAT, or £81,000 including VAT. The contract period runs from 23 September 2026 to 30 September 2026. Offers are evaluated on price, weighted at 80%, and quality, weighted at 20%. The process is governed by the Procurement Act 2023. The contract is intended for beach management works at Newbiggin Bay.

This opportunity suits contractors with direct experience of beach management and practical coastal works, particularly sand reprofiling and sand recycling. It is relevant to civil engineering, marine works, coastal protection and specialist beach-management businesses able to mobilise equipment and personnel to Newbiggin Bay and complete a defined programme of site operations. The buyer has identified the requirement as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises, so smaller organisations with the relevant technical capability can compete. Suppliers should be comfortable delivering construction works in a coastal environment and demonstrating quality alongside a strongly price-led offer. The requirement is focused and short-duration, making it potentially suitable for businesses with available operational capacity for a concentrated site commission.
