Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, in partnership with the University of South Wales, involved a tender for refurbishment work in the Raymond Edwards building located in Cardiff, UK. The contract focused on reconfiguring and refurbishing the 2nd-floor office space and the 1st-floor toilet block. Key dates include the contract signing on 22nd May 2026, with execution from 3rd August to 28th August 2026. This was an open competition procurement method, particularly below threshold, designed to attract a wide range of tenders. The process reached the award stage with CARDO (WALES & WEST) LIMITED being the chosen supplier, and the contract is currently active.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for construction companies specialising in refurbishment and reconfiguration projects. It particularly appeals to businesses experienced in comprehensive refurbishments, including demolition, ceiling installations, and air-conditioning fit-outs. Large companies, although below the threshold, particularly benefit from the project's scope for craftsmanship and innovation in agile workspaces and refurbishment applications. This opportunity aligns well with businesses in the construction and facilities management sector looking to expand their portfolio in high-profile educational establishment projects within the United Kingdom.
