UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Newport City Council, functioning as Newport (LATCo), is managing a significant procurement process for the construction of a dining/multi-use hall and car park/access way at St Mary's RC Primary School in Newport, South Wales. This project falls within the 'Construction work' industry category and is part of a selective procurement method, specifically a competitive flexible procedure. The procurement stage is currently active, with the expression of interest deadline set for 30th June 2025, and the award period ending on 14th July 2025. This accelerated process is driven by a state of urgency, and the total project value is estimated at £6,720,000. Interested parties must submit the required Welsh Procurement Specific Questionnaire (WPSQ) via the etenderWales online portal, with final submissions due in late June 2025.

For businesses in the construction industry, this tender represents an excellent opportunity for growth and involvement in public sector projects within the United Kingdom. Suitable candidates include small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with strengths in technical ability and economic capacity, as highlighted by the selection criteria involving the WPSQ. The opportunity provides a chance to engage in a high-value project aligning with Welsh devolved regulations, offering exposure and partnership possibilities with local government bodies. Companies skilled in competitive tendering within an accelerated and flexible procurement framework would be well-placed to compete for this contract.
