Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "NMWTRA Specialist Design Services Framework Contract 2026," initiated by Cyngor Gwynedd, centred around providing design services, specifically in the realm of engineering and consultancy, under the sector of services. The process followed an open procedure for procurement, covered by GPA, and involved a framework agreement with the possibility of opening competition. Unfortunately, due to considerations outside the control of the authority concerning insurance liability limits, the tender process had to be cancelled as of 14th July 2026. The primary region of interest for this procurement was North and Mid Wales, including areas like Caernarfon, where Cyngor Gwynedd is located. The tender process initially had engagement periods scheduled to conclude by April 2026, with awards expected by May 2026.

This tender provided significant opportunities for growth, especially for SMEs involved in engineering design, hazard protection, technical consultancy, and training services, given its open framework allowing for competitive sub-contracting. The intended lots spanned street lighting design, mechanical and electrical systems, and risk assessment, indicating a perfect venture for businesses involved in these sectors to expand their portfolio. The framework agreement was designed to involve multiple councils such as Ceredigion, Conwy, and Denbighshire, offering a broad scope for businesses to establish long-term relationships within the public sector. Although the tender was cancelled, similar future opportunities could be highly beneficial for companies capable of providing specialised technical designs and consultancy services.
