Procurement Opportunities

For procurement pipeline of work and information about how to register as a supplier see the information below.

For details on the procurement pipeline of work for the Combined Authority and the South Tees Development Corporation click here.

Please note, this is not an exhaustive list of our procurements, but a forward view of larger projects, where we have some certainty of them being undertaken. Other opportunities can be found by registering on the following: https://www.gov.uk/contracts-finder.

We may procure using any of the following processes:

Request for quotation:

Should you be invited to submit a quotation you will be sent a notification via the Proactis Portal, where you can submit an expression of interest and download tender documents.

Further competition using an existing framework:

For goods, services and works contracts we may run further competitions using pre-approved frameworks. The below list is not exhaustive but shows the types of frameworks we may use. Suppliers can contact the framework owners for information on future opportunities to bid for places on upcoming frameworks on NEPO, Crown Commerical Service and Pagabo.

Open procurement/Invitation to tender:

For higher value works and services and where a suitable framework is not available, we will run an open procurement. Any suitable provider can tender for the opportunity via the Proactis Portal, where you can submit an expression of interest and download tender documents.

Current live tenders:

Many further public sector opportunities can be found by registering on the following: https://www.gov.uk/contracts-finder

Contracts Finder is where all Public Sector contracts will be advertised in line with requirements. Those opportunities which are below threshold or are competed utilising existing frameworks may not be added to contracts finder.

Please note the following can be used to search for Teesworks opportunities:

  • Teesworks
  • South Tees Development Corporation

Any award of contract with a value above £25,000 will mean an award notice is published on contracts finder (https://www.gov.uk/contracts-finder). Suppliers may use this information to approach winning bidders for information on sub-contracting opportunities.

For Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs), please see below links to official Government knowledge drops which address the coming changes for the Procurement Act 2023, which will come into affect from October 2024:
