Summary of the contracting process

Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board bought additional consultancy services for a door-access and CCTV upgrade scheme at Princess of Wales Hospital in Bridgend. NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership – Procurement Services managed the procurement on the Health Board’s behalf. The work covers coordination drawings for electrical, IT and data, and fire-alarm systems; stakeholder coordination; programme-delivery meetings; integration with the appointed installation contractor; and asbestos-coordination activities. It supports delivery of the hospital security and access upgrade and involves architectural, construction, engineering and inspection consultancy. Delivery is at Princess of Wales Hospital, Bridgend, making this relevant to firms providing building-services coordination, security-system project consultancy and specialist healthcare-site support.

This procurement is complete and was awarded directly without competition, using a below-threshold procedure. The award went to James & Nicholas LLP on 12 June 2026. The award and contract value is £15,500 excluding VAT, or £18,600 including VAT. The contract was signed on 26 June 2026 and runs from 1 July 2026 to 31 March 2027. There was one lot, marked as suitable for SMEs. The Health Board justified the direct award because additional requirements arose from unforeseen site complexity, and changing supplier would cause incompatibility with existing works, duplicated effort, loss of site knowledge, delivery delays, and increased cost and risk. The active contract remains with the selected supplier.

For suppliers that did not win this award, the procurement demonstrates demand from Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board for specialist consultancy supporting live hospital upgrade works. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to produce coordinated drawings across electrical, IT and data, and fire-alarm disciplines, while managing stakeholders and programme meetings. It would also need to work closely with an appointed installation contractor, coordinate technical interfaces, and address asbestos-related activity safely and effectively. Experience of complex healthcare or operational sites, strong site-specific coordination, and the ability to prevent incompatibility, duplication and delivery disruption would be important. The requirement suits established engineering, building-services or security-upgrade consultancies able to integrate several workstreams.

Notice Information

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.
