The procurement stage for the contract is currently at the tender update stage as of 25th March 2026, with previous stages having completed the award in August 2025. The procurement is operating under the open procedure method, allowing broader participation that can maximise competitive offers. Key dates include the initial tender close on 2nd April 2025 and the subsequent contract signing on 21st August 2025.

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in chargers, telematics, or electric vehicle charging solutions may find this contract particularly appealing, considering the extensive scope and substantial budget increase compared to the original estimate which was rectified. The procurement process embraces open competition through the open procedure, providing diverse businesses a chance to propose innovative solutions and contribute to sustainable urban development in Newcastle.
