## Summary

The procurement process involves Hartlepool Borough Council, acting as the buying organisation, in the project titled "Reimagining Middleton Grange - Transfer of Titles & Deeds". This project falls under the industry category of services, specifically commercial property management services, and is located in Hartlepool, United Kingdom (region UKC11). The procurement stage is complete, focusing on the urgent appointment of property and legal resources to facilitate the transfer and variation of freehold and leasehold titles. Awarded on 20th May 2026, the contract commenced on 1st May 2026 and is set to conclude on 1st November 2026, with a total contract value of £11,998.80. The procurement method utilised was a direct, non-competitive process due to urgency and funding constraints.

This tender provides significant business growth opportunities for firms specialising in property management and legal services. The project requires immediate engagement with experienced specialists, indicating potential for businesses that can deliver rapid, high-quality services. Firms located within or familiar with the UKC11 region will have an advantage in understanding local requirements. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and other businesses capable of handling complex property transactions can find a niche in this tender, given its focus on expediting critical phases of the project to meet regeneration goals. The appointed supplier, CARTER TOWLER LIMITED, is an SME based in Leeds, showcasing that firms of this scale can successfully secure such opportunities.

## Notice

The Reimagining Middleton Grange project is a Hartlepool Borough Council (HBC) capital scheme funded through the Local Regeneration Fund (formerly the Town Deal) with a fixed deadline of March 2028. The project has been delayed due to external factors relating to assets not being within HBC ownership or control, although agreement has now been reached to transfer and/or vary the necessary freehold and leasehold titles. HBC requires the urgent appointment of specialist property and legal resource to expedite these complex transactions, which are critical to unlocking the site and enabling the appointment of consultants and contractors and the commencement of capital works. Immediate engagement of suitably experienced specialists, ensures that risks to programme delivery are mitigated and that the Council can progress the scheme in line with funding requirements. Undertaking a full procurement process would cause unacceptable delay and risk failure to meet funding deadlines.
