Summary of the contracting process

Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board appointed a lead consultant for the reconfiguration of Unit 1, the Adult Learning Disability Day Unit at Keir Hardie Health Park in Merthyr Tydfil. The commission covers the full range of professional consultancy services needed to complete RIBA Stages 0 to 7, from project definition and feasibility through design, construction support and completion. The existing unit’s service provider is Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council, while the health park is owned and maintained by the Health Board. This is a public-sector healthcare design and construction consultancy requirement, covering architectural, engineering, inspection and related professional services. Delivery is centred on the health park in Merthyr Tydfil, within Wales.

The procurement is complete and was run by NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership for the Health Board through an open procedure, with one completed lot. Eight bids reached the final stage, including eight from SMEs. The contract was awarded to James & Nicholas Architects Engineers Limited on 15 September 2026 for £81,750 excluding VAT (£98,100 including VAT). The awarded contract period runs from 28 September to 26 October 2026; the wider tender contract period was 31 August 2026 to 22 February 2027. The tender closed on 24 July 2026 at 14:00, enquiries closed on 20 July 2026 at 14:00 and the award decision period ended on 10 August 2026. Evaluation was based on quality and cost: the fee offer represented 60%, while experience, delivery, team, wellbeing, foundational economy and carbon criteria made up the quality assessment.

This award indicates demand from the Health Board for multidisciplinary consultancy capable of taking a specialist healthcare reconfiguration through every RIBA stage. A credible competitor would need demonstrable experience designing and delivering healthcare settings of similar size, scope, complexity and value, particularly environments tailored to adults with learning disabilities or other special user needs. The required team would need the skills, knowledge and experience to manage design, construction and client delivery, with evidence that comparable projects met time, budget and brief requirements. Suppliers should also be able to support Welsh wellbeing, local supply chains, social value and decarbonisation objectives, including credible carbon reduction measures. Commercial readiness includes annual turnover above £225,000 or scalable capacity, satisfactory liquidity, UK GDPR capability and Cyber Essentials or an equivalent certification.
