Summary of the contracting process

NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, procured construction works for the Welsh Ambulance Service University NHS Trust at Carmarthen Ambulance Station. The requirement covered replacing the roofs on six existing roof areas across two operational buildings. Associated works included installing new rainwater goods, upgrading external lighting and installing a small solar photovoltaic array to support energy performance and sustainability objectives. The contractor was required to design and carry out the works in line with current statutory requirements, relevant NHS standards and NHS Estates guidance. The procurement used a JCT Intermediate Building Contract, 2016 Edition. This is a single construction requirement focused on roofing, external building works, lighting and small-scale renewable energy installation at an operational ambulance facility.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a below-threshold open competition. Five bids were received, with two reaching the final stage. Evaluation was split equally between quality and cost: quality covered technical capability, methodology, workforce competence, statutory compliance, risk management, resource allocation and delivery approach; cost covered total contract cost, scheduled items, call-out rates, planned preventative maintenance and additional pricing. The tender deadline was 11 June 2026 at 12:00, with enquiries closing on 4 June 2026 at 12:00. The contract was awarded on 31 July 2026 to T.RICHARD JONES (BETWS)LIMITED for £260,294.07 excluding VAT (£312,352.88 including VAT). The awarded contract period runs from 10 August 2026 to 25 January 2027, with signature scheduled for 7 August 2026.

This award demonstrates demand from NHS Wales for specialist building contractors able to deliver roofing replacement and associated external works in an operational healthcare or emergency-service environment. A credible competitor would need practical experience managing multiple roof areas across occupied buildings, coordinating safely around ongoing operations and delivering work to an agreed construction contract. Strong technical method statements should address statutory compliance, risk management, sequencing, resource allocation and workforce competence, because these areas formed half of the evaluation. Relevant capability in rainwater goods, external lighting and small solar photovoltaic installations would support a complete response to the requirement. Suppliers should also be able to produce clear, competitive pricing covering scheduled works, call-out rates, planned preventative maintenance and additional items, while demonstrating awareness of NHS standards and Estates guidance.
