## Summary

The procurement process for the construction of Foundry House, intended to support interim arrangements for Mowbray Primary School, was undertaken by Northumberland County Council. The contract, classified under the construction industry (CPV code 45000000), is located in the North East region of the United Kingdom. The procurement was conducted using a direct award via a framework, and the tender stage has been completed with the contract awarded to Compass Developments NE Limited. The contract period began on 16th January 2026 and concluded on 20th March 2026, with the award announcement made on 29th March 2026, following the tender period ending on 15th January 2026.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for construction firms, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), seeking to expand their portfolio by participating in public sector development projects. Given its focus on redevelopment works at an educational facility, businesses with experience in school construction and renovation will find this contract particularly suitable. Although the contract has been awarded, similar future opportunities with Northumberland County Council in the educational sector or other public infrastructure projects may emerge, providing ongoing potential for business growth and collaboration.
