Situated in Pontypridd, UK, the University is the contracting authority. Recently, amendments were made to the existing contract on 24th June 2026 to include additional services like laundry and storage of bedding materials. Initially, the tender was awarded on 17th July 2025 and commenced on 27th June 2025, following an open competition procurement method.
