## Summary

The Tyne and Wear Passenger Transport Executive, operating as Nexus, has completed the procurement process for a framework contract titled "Small Works Framework" under the competitive flexible procedure. This procurement, falling under the utilities regime, involves civil engineering tasks including construction, demolition, structural repairs, and maintenance within the Tyne and Wear area, associated with the Metro system. The procurement, valued at an estimated £15 million over 48 months, was concluded on the 10th of November, 2025, with the award set to be signed by the 24th of November, 2025. The contract period is from December 1, 2025, to November 30, 2029, with an option for a 12-month extension.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the civil engineering and construction sectors to be involved in infrastructure projects within a major urban transport network. Companies with expertise in civil and structural engineering, particularly those experienced with public infrastructure works, are well-suited to compete. Offering opportunities for both SMEs and larger firms, the framework's flexible nature allows for varied project engagements, facilitating business growth and diversification within the industry. The framework contract encourages high-quality service provision, with a balanced emphasis on price and quality criteria for bid evaluations.

## Notice

Nexus requires a small works framework to support the Nexus major projects and maintenance delivery teams with the delivery of the capital programme and critical maintenance activities. The works will vary on a project-by-project basis but are generally expected to have significant elements of Civil engineering work such as construction, demolition, and structural repair works. Mechanical and electrical work, clearance of vegetation and maintenance/repair of boundary fences may also be required. Some projects may be of a design and build nature. Exacting requirements for each activity will be communicated by Nexus through call-off contracts. The locations of the sites where the work will take place will vary on a project-by-project basis but are generally expected to be within the Tyne and Wear conurbation and closely associated with the current route of the Metro system. The framework Contract duration is 48 months with an option to extend for a period of 12 months. Call offs will be made by direct award to the sole supplier on the framework. The estimated framework value is PS15m (Excluding VAT) across the term of the Framework Agreement. Nexus cannot guarantee this estimated framework value; it is an estimate based on possible future pipeline projects.
