Summary of the contracting process

The City & County of Swansea recently completed a procurement process for the electrical rewire at Waun Wen Primary School, known as Phase 2 of 3. This below-threshold, open competition was aimed at upgrading the school's electrical installations and had a contract period from 22nd July 2025 to 1st September 2025. The procurement falls under the "works" category and adheres to Welsh devolved regulations. The procurement method used was open, and JW Bowkett Electrical Installations Ltd, a large-scale supplier, was awarded the contract, valued at £120,000 excluding VAT. Relevant legal frameworks, including the 2023/54 UKPGA, guided this procurement.

This tender presents lucrative opportunities for businesses experienced in electrical installations, particularly those accredited for large-scale works. With the competitive structure rewarding a balance of quality (30%) and price (70%), it is suitable for SMEs aiming to expand their footprint in public sector contracts. Vendors capable of delivering high-quality project management and complying with CDM regulations will find this an attractive opportunity to showcase their capabilities and secure further work within the educational sector. The project also fosters community engagement through local sourcing and alignment with regional standards.
