## Summary

The procurement process, led by Gateshead College, involves a selective call-off contract for mechanical and electrical capital works at three campuses during Summer 2026. This project, titled "M&E Capital Works - Summer 2026", falls under the industry category of mechanical installations. The location for the work is in the North East region of the United Kingdom. The procurement has progressed to the award stage, with the award notice published on 24th July 2026. Key timelines include a contract period from 29th June 2026 to 1st September 2026, with the tender period having ended on 3rd June 2026. The procurement method was a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system (DPS) specifically designed for internal building fit-outs and maintenance.

This tender creates business growth opportunities by offering organisations, particularly those experienced in mechanical installations, the chance to work with a reputed educational institution within a pre-defined project timeframe. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly well-suited to this opportunity, given the procurement's selective method and focus on an established DPS channel, although the awarded contract is with the large-scale supplier HLA Services Limited. SMEs can leverage such frameworks to enhance their portfolio credibility, while larger corporations may consider partnerships to effectively handle the scale of work required under the DPS agreements. Engaging in such contracts can also offer businesses exposure and the potential for subsequent projects or future collaboration with public sector bodies.
