UK5 - Transparency Notice
Summary of the contracting process

This public procurement process involves Transport for Wales Rail Limited, a sub-central government utility buyer from Pontypridd, Wales, and the supplier Cenex, a large company based in Leicestershire. The procurement is for services under the title "Cenex Nevis Service," centred on providing an online suite of modules to support the deployment of high-quality EV charging infrastructure. The industry category includes electrical services and chargers, with a contract period starting on 2nd April 2026 and potentially extending until 2nd April 2029. The process takes place under Welsh devolved regulations, with direct procurement below the threshold without competition. The award, valued at £85,000, was completed on 17th March 2026.

The procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses focusing on electric vehicle infrastructure, particularly those engaged in delivering advanced charging solutions. With the NEVIS Tool enabling efficient deployment for public sector organisations, businesses specialising in electrical services and technology development around EV charging infrastructure are ideally positioned to benefit. The absence of competitive tendering favours businesses with established relationships with public authorities, like Cenex, who are well-equipped to showcase their expertise in similar domains and expand their influence in sustainable transportation solutions across the UK.
