## Summary

The procurement process for the "North East Area Asset Replacement Programme" has been completed under the auspices of the Defra Network eTendering Portal. This programme falls within the service industry, specifically focusing on project-design services, and is located in the North West region of the United Kingdom. The contract period commenced on 28 September 2020 and concluded on 31 March 2021, with an earlier tender period set to end on 30 June 2020. The procurement method employed was selective, with the contract awarded to Companies House following a call-off from a framework agreement.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses adept in project design, particularly those specialising in asset management, infrastructure, and environmental services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are well-positioned to compete, given the suitability criteria that favour their participation. Companies experienced in working with public sector clients or those with a focus on sustainable and efficient solutions will find this contract particularly relevant to their service offerings.

## Notice

The NEA Asset Replacement Programme has evolved from an earlier package of works, the Northumbria Minor works package. Initially this consisted of a number of diverse projects in the areas of screen replacement and flood defence enhancement. The package was progressed with BAM Nuttall/Mott MacDonald as PDU7 partners for the Northeast. Studies and scheme development was undertaken under a series of Early Supplier Engagement (ESE) instructions. This resulted in a number of costed schemes, however BAM Nuttall/Mott MacDonald declined to progress with all but one of the projects; Spring Gardens Dam, Co Durham. A separate contract was established for these works which are now nearing completion. The remainder of the Northumbria Minor works package was passed to the Intermediate Maintenance framework contractor for the Northeast, Esh. Schemes were developed and costed for each project and a number have been delivered by this route; Church Lane, Middlesbrough; Tanner's Row and Sele screens, Hexham are nearing completion.
