Summary of the contracting process

Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council commissioned architectural services for the Billingham Sports Hub project. The work covers design and delivery of the pavilion building and associated facilities, integrated with the wider project. It also involves developing, coordinating and finalising the technical design to produce a coordinated, deliverable scheme across the site. The requirement was for a multidisciplinary consultant team, with architectural design forming the core service. The project is in Billingham, within Stockton-on-Tees. The procurement was for building architectural services (CPV 71221000).

The procurement is complete and awarded to Ryder Architecture Limited. The Council made a direct award through the Procure Partnerships Framework’s Professional Services Architectural Design lot, using a limited procedure without a published competition. The contract was signed on 17 September 2026 and is valued at £88,541.67. One bid was recorded. The award criterion was price. The associated lot is marked cancelled, while the award and contract are recorded as active; the published outcome identifies Ryder Architecture as the selected supplier and records an active contract.

For architecture practices and multidisciplinary design consultancies, this award shows Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council’s demand for coordinated architectural services on a complex sports and community facility project. A credible supplier needs the capacity to develop and complete technical design, coordinate with other project elements, and demonstrate that the resulting scheme can be delivered across a challenging site. The Council specifically sought a suitably qualified and experienced team with strong design coordination and project integration capability, backed by a proven record of delivering complex schemes with the Council. The route used was a direct award from a professional services framework, so relevant framework access and architectural design credentials are important to competing for comparable requirements from this buyer. The contract represents a focused design commission rather than construction delivery.
