This procurement seeks contractors capable of addressing the demand for repairs and refurbishments of void properties in Newcastle upon Tyne, specifically for an in-house building division known as the Building and Commercial Enterprise (BCE). The tender period is active, with a submission deadline set for 3rd October 2018. The aim is to engage subcontractors who can start work with minimal notice, with the contract anticipated to commence on 26th November 2018 and extend until 25th November 2020. The total contract value is estimated at £950,000. This tender presents significant opportunities for contractors specialising in joinery, plastering, plumbing, and painting, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Businesses that can provide immediate and flexible labour to undertake varying volumes of work in a timely manner will be well-positioned to compete. Given the variable nature of the workload, those with a strong operational capacity and the ability to maintain high-quality standards in multiple trades will likely find this contract advantageous for business growth. ## Notice Newcastle City Council has an in-house building division - Building and Commercial Enterprise (BCE), they are currently the main contractor to Your Homes Newcastle carrying out repairs, maintenance and refurbishment works to properties in Newcastle upon Tyne.
