Summary of the contracting process

The Welsh Government, located in Cardiff, is currently in the planning stage for a procurement process concerning demolition and enabling works at the Former Coney Beach Pleasure Park, which falls under the construction industry category for demolition work. This project, under the guidance of Corporate Procurement Services, is aimed at the delivery of works below threshold, involving asbestos removal, demolition, crushing, and other construction-related activities. Businesses interested in participating are invited to register their interest by March 2026, with a supplier briefing and site visit scheduled for early April 2026. Participants should register on Sell2Wales and contact via email with the designated subject line. The upcoming stages will include a detailed review of qualifications and financial capacity necessary to participate in the tender process, with a deadline set for engagement registration by the end of April 2026.
