## Summary

Stockton on Tees Borough Council has completed a direct procurement process for the diversion of Northern PowerGrid utility apparatus as part of the Durham Lane Cycleway Scheme. This contract addresses infrastructure constraints related to the delivery of the cycleway to comply with LTN1/20 standards and Active Travel England requirements. The procurement was carried out without competition due to its value being below the threshold. Northern PowerGrid was the supplier for this project, and the contract period spanned from the 12th of August, 2025 to the 1st of September, 2025. The project is located in Stockton on Tees, specifically in the UKC11 region, and falls under the "works" category, focusing on construction work for electricity power lines and ancillary works for pipelines and cables.

The successful implementation of this tender provides a significant opportunity for businesses involved in the utilities and civil engineering sectors. Companies specialising in utility relocation, particularly those with expertise in managing electricity infrastructure, could benefit from such projects due to the technical nature of the work. Additionally, working with public authorities like Stockton on Tees Borough Council can establish a precedent for future collaborations, offering growth opportunities through expanded networks and the demonstration of capabilities in completing government contracts efficiently and compliantly. Large-scale suppliers like Northern PowerGrid that demonstrate proficiency in handling utility infrastructure are especially well-suited for such tenders.
