Morning all,
It’s Friday 13th, so the procurement gods are doing that thing where everything either disappears behind a portal login or turns out to be an award notice from six months ago. Luckily, there’s still plenty of very real, very bid-able North East work here if you know where to look.
Some of this week’s handpicked highlights:
A Bedlington town centre regeneration build (B&M retail + Starbucks drive-thru + externals) for anyone who can run a full programme without the wheels coming off
A Northumberland communal refurbishment package if you’ve got fit-out teams that can phase works cleanly, keep sites tidy and close snags fast
A Sunderland Minor Works framework slot for plumbers (Domestic Plumbing & Heating under £50k) that’s worth doing once because it can turn into steady call-offs all year
A matching electricians’ lot on the same Sunderland framework (Electricity Connections work) for firms who can respond quickly and keep compliance paperwork tight
A Gentoo groundworks framework (roads, sewers, plotworks, externals) for teams who can resource housing developments and hit milestones
A Blyth remedials package (dry dock + river frontage) if you’re strong on civils/structural works and tricky site constraints
A Durham legionella risk assessment framework for water hygiene specialists who can deliver at scale with clean, audit-proof reporting
Good luck and see you next week,
— Andrew
