Summary of the contracting process

Cyngor Gwynedd has initiated a procurement process to develop the "Bala Town Centre Strategy," part of the Gwynedd Ni programme. This project involves commissioning consultants with appropriate qualifications to prepare a signage strategy for the centre of Y Bala. The procurement is open to competition, following a 'below threshold' method and is classified under research and development services. Situated in Caernarfon, the council's office serves as the contracting authority within the UKL1 region. Important deadlines to note include the close of the tender period on 4th July 2025 and the enquiry period concluding on 1st July 2025. The contract is set to commence on 7th July 2025 and is expected to run until 31st January 2026.

This opportunity presents significant potential for businesses specialising in research, development, and consultancy services, particularly those experienced in urban planning, signage, and strategising. SMEs are particularly encouraged to tender due to the suitability criteria outlined, indicating that smaller enterprises have a competitive edge. Participants need to balance quality and cost effectively, with a weightage of 80% to quality and 20% to cost in evaluation criteria. The gross value of the contract is set at £12,000, offering a lucrative opportunity for the successful bidder to contribute to enhancing the town's infrastructure, potentially fostering a long-term business relationship with Cyngor Gwynedd.
