Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, has completed the procurement process for additional consultancy services necessary for a door access and CCTV upgrade scheme at Princess of Wales Hospital, Bridgend. This procurement, under the category of architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services, was conducted as a direct award to James & Nicholas LLP, a large supplier, due to unforeseen additional requirements arising from the site's complexity. The contract, valued at £18,600 gross, commenced on 1st July 2026 and will conclude on 31st March 2027. The procurement was executed under Welsh devolved regulations and classified as a below-threshold direct award due to the specialised needs and site-specific knowledge required.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialised in consultancy services related to building access security systems and complex integration projects. The direct award approach indicates a demand for trusted, technically capable partners who are already embedded in ongoing projects. Businesses capable of supplying comprehensive site coordination and those with experience in managing integration with existing infrastructures and adherence to regulatory frameworks would find this an attractive area for potential future engagements. The contract's reliance on current site-specific expertise highlights the need for specialised skill sets and technical knowledge in managing sensitive and complex installation projects.

Notice Title

Provision of Additional Consultancy Services to Support the Delivery of a Door Access and CCTV Upgrade Scheme at Princess of Wales Hospital, Bridgend.

Notice Description

NWSSP on behalf of Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board has awarded for the provision of additional consultancy services to support the delivery of a door access and CCTV upgrade scheme at Princess of Wales Hospital in Bridgend. The requirement includes the production of coordination drawings (electrical, IT/data and fire alarm), stakeholder coordination and programme delivery meetings, integration with the appointed installation contractor, and asbestos coordination activities . The services are being directly awarded to the existing supplier as additional requirements have arisen during delivery due to the complexity of the site, which could not have been reasonably foreseen at the outset. A change of supplier would result in incompatibility with existing works, duplication of effort, loss of site-specific knowledge, and delays to delivery. Continuation with the existing supplier is therefore justified on the basis that a change would lead to technical and operational difficulties and increased cost and risk to the contracting authority.
