Summary of the contracting process

Newcastle City Council procured internal level access works at Ewart, Shaftoe and Bramwell blocks. The work is construction and concerns adaptations within existing residential or public buildings to improve access between levels. The named blocks define the immediate work locations, with the council responsible for procuring the works. The requirement was arranged as a single package rather than separate workstreams. It is relevant to building contractors that deliver internal alterations, access improvements and associated construction works in occupied or operational blocks. The scope is focused on physical works to create or improve level access, rather than consultancy, design-only services, equipment supply or general property maintenance.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. Newcastle City Council selected K D BUILDING SOLUTIONS LIMITED, an SME, for the single lot. The award was made on 9 September 2026 and the contract was signed the same day. The active contract is valued at £119,970 gross in GBP. Its term runs from 9 November 2026 to 26 February 2027. The procurement method was limited competition, with the process identified as below threshold. The award covers construction work for the internal level access improvements at Ewart, Shaftoe and Bramwell. No separate award or alternative supplier is recorded.

This award demonstrates a council requirement for contractors able to carry out internal level access construction works across several named blocks under one coordinated package. Suppliers best placed for comparable future requirements would have practical experience of building alterations that improve accessibility, including planning and sequencing work within existing buildings and managing delivery across multiple locations or work areas. The selected supplier was recorded as an SME, indicating that a smaller specialist contractor can be credible for this type of council works package. Businesses should be able to demonstrate reliable construction delivery, coordination with the council and the capacity to complete a defined access-improvement programme within a short contract period.
