## Summary

North Tyneside Council procured works to replace the lighting at Benton Dene Campus School. The requirement is a construction and building-related works project focused on upgrading the school’s lighting installation. Delivery is in the North East of England. The council is the buyer and the named site is the Benton Dene Campus School. This is a practical building-services opportunity for contractors that deliver lighting replacement and associated installation works in education premises. The procurement sits within the works category and concerns the physical improvement of an existing school facility, rather than the supply of standalone lighting products alone. The appointed supplier was Nala Engineers Limited, based in County Durham.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a selective mini competition, using a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 12 March 2026 at 12:00. North Tyneside Council awarded the contract to Nala Engineers Limited on 23 July 2026 for £148,000 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 20 July 2026 to 20 September 2026. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The awarded contract covers the full replacement-lighting works requirement at Benton Dene Campus School. The award is active, and the procurement was evaluated through the framework mini-competition route.

For a supplier assessing future work with North Tyneside Council, this procurement demonstrates demand for school lighting replacement delivered through a framework call-off and mini-competition. A credible competitor would need practical experience in replacing lighting installations in occupied or operational education buildings, with the capacity to manage site works safely and coordinate delivery with the council and school. Relevant capability includes surveying existing lighting, planning installation works, supplying compatible equipment, completing testing and commissioning, and handing over a functioning system. The successful supplier was an SME, indicating that this type of council works package can suit a focused specialist contractor rather than only a large national business. Framework access and disciplined competition are commercially relevant route-to-market considerations.
