## Summary

The Tees Valley Combined Authority, a sub-central government public authority located in Darlington, facilitated a procurement process for the ground investigations in Middlesbrough. The tender, identified as TVCA-PROC-0791, focuses on transport and infrastructure schemes along the Longlands Road and Newport Road corridors. This project, classified under the works category, was awarded directly to Middlesbrough Council without competition, as it was below the procurement threshold. The procurement process reached the award and contract stage, with contracts signed on 10th June 2026, effective from 6th to 31st March 2026, with a gross contract value of £84,213.60.

This tender presents growth opportunities for businesses involved in ground and infrastructure investigations and paving works. While the contract was awarded directly to Middlesbrough Council, such opportunities may suit large-scale organisations capable of delivering comprehensive feasibility, business case development, and design services in infrastructure projects. Businesses that can offer innovative solutions for non-intrusive ground investigations or utility works in urban settings can continue to stay alert for similar ventures led by the Tees Valley Combined Authority or other sub-central government bodies.
