Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for delivering the Adult Social Care Accommodation Strategy in Merthyr Tydfil was conducted by the Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council, a public authority under the Welsh devolved regulations. The procurement involved an open competition method and was categorised under services, particularly focussing on research and development consultancy services and health and social work services. The procurement process has reached the award stage, with Hugh Irwin Associated Ltd being the supplier. The contract will commence on 1st December 2025 and end on 31st March 2026, with a gross contract value of £65,670.00. The process adhered to regulations outlined in the UK's legislative framework (UKPGA 2023/54) and targeted the geographical region of UKL15 in the United Kingdom.

This tender opens up noticeable opportunities for businesses in the research, development, and health sectors, particularly those specialising in adult social care services. Companies that are small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), like Hugh Irwin Associated Ltd, would be particularly well-suited to participate due to the open competition format and the feasibility of the project size. Businesses with a background in consultancy services and those able to provide detailed feasibility studies to local authorities can gain significantly from such contracts, as they contribute not only to revenue growth but also to building lasting partnerships with governmental bodies like the Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council.
