Summary of the contracting process

The City & County of Swansea initiated an open procurement procedure titled "Framework for Capital Building Works" within the construction industry category. This process encompassed a range of works including groundworks, bricklaying, external wall insulation, and more, distributed across various lots for services to be delivered in Swansea. The procurement was intended to result in a framework agreement with multiple contractors for each lot. Initially set active on 21st February 2025, the procurement moved through its tender stage with subsequent updates and adjustments in timelines, under legal framework CELEX 32014L0024, and eventually was cancelled as of 25th June 2025.

This procurement exercise presented significant opportunities for construction firms particularly specialising in building works, carpentry, plastering, and related sub-categories. Businesses adept at competitive pricing and efficiency in construction could benefit from such extensive frameworks, ideally enabling them to secure repeated and varied projects. With a maximum of six participants per lot initially envisaged, it would favour experienced contractors, including consortia or those focusing on growth within public sector works. Despite the process's cancellation, analysing the procurement details and participant requirements highlights potential strategies for engagement in future procurement activities from the City & County of Swansea.
