## Summary

The Northumberland County Council (NCC) is conducting a tender for the "NCC528 Northumberland Line Stations Construction Project". This initiative aims to establish a Framework Agreement for the construction of six new stations and associated infrastructure between Ashington and Northumberland Park. The total value of the procurement is £40 million, with the primary contract period scheduled from 1 August 2021 to 31 July 2025. The tender process is currently in the Award stage, having been published on 16 March 2021, and the deadline for submissions was 15 April 2021. This project falls under the transport equipment and construction work industry categories.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for construction firms, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in transport infrastructure. Companies equipped to provide pre-construction services and execute large-scale construction projects are especially well-suited to compete. The Framework Agreement will allow for direct award contracts to the selected primary contractor, further enhancing stability and potential for collaboration among the awarded suppliers throughout the duration of the project.

## Notice

Northumberland County Council (NCC) wishes to establish a Framework Agreement to deliver the station packages of the Northumberland Line Rail Project. Two Contractors will be appointed, a primary and a reserve. The scope includes pre-construction services and, subject to funding, the construction of six stations and car parks including the associated infrastructure at locations between Ashington and Northumberland Park in Northumberland. It is NCC's intention to directly award all call-off contracts to the Primary Contractor. Call-off constract(s) will only be awarded to the Reserve Contractor under certain conditions which will be detailed within the Tender Documentation. The Framework Agreement will be based on the NEC4 Framework contract. Call-off Contracts will be issued under the NEC4 Professional Services Contract (PSC) and Engineering and Construction Contract (ECC). The Tender documentation can be obtained from www.procontract.due-nortth.com reference number DN532422.
