Summary of the contracting process

Trivallis has appointed a development partner for the Penrhys Regeneration Project in Penrhys, Wales. The partner is to work with Trivallis to design and deliver a new housing development, invest in mixed-tenure housebuilding, and manage the process from planning through sales and after-care. The first phase is expected to deliver about 121 homes, as part of a longer-term plan for around 800–900 homes across the site. The project also includes social value, with residents at the centre of the process. The work combines housing construction and development with property, construction-management and consultancy services, including building-work supervision and site surveying.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Wates Construction Limited. The award date is 8 October 2026 and the awarded value is £209,330,418. The contract period is 20 October 2026 to 19 October 2036, with extensions allowed for unforeseen delays and a maximum end date of 19 October 2041. Trivallis used an open competitive flexible procedure with three stages: qualification and case studies, initial proposals and dialogue, then final tenders. One final-stage bid was recorded. Quality counted for 60% of the evaluation and commercial terms for 40%. Selection considered economic and technical criteria, including the Welsh Procurement Specific Questionnaire and case studies.

For suppliers considering similar future housing regeneration work for Trivallis, this award indicates demand for a development partner able to combine large-scale housing delivery with end-to-end project management. Credible competitors would need to demonstrate experience and capacity across planning, design, construction, sales and after-care, as well as the ability to deliver mixed-tenure housing and engage residents while producing social value. The selection process placed weight on economic and technical capability, evidenced through the Welsh Procurement Specific Questionnaire and relevant case studies; final evaluation balanced quality and commercial terms. The successful supplier was a large construction company, and the project’s multi-phase scope suggests that delivery capability across a substantial housing programme is relevant.
