UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Post Office Limited is seeking a retailer to incorporate a Post Office Local branch into an existing or proposed business at Tal Y Bont. The service will provide post office counter services alongside the retailer’s normal operation, using the same opening hours as the wider retail business. The exact counter layout and design will be agreed with the successful retailer to suit the premises and business. This is a service opportunity rather than a construction or product-supply contract. The work will be delivered in Tal Y Bont, United Kingdom, and is intended to create a sustainable retail setting in which Post Office services can operate as part of a broader customer-facing business.

The process has reached tender: Post Office Limited invited offers through an open competitive flexible procedure. It uses a multi-stage assessment of postmaster candidate suitability and is treated as a light-touch concession arrangement. The tender submission deadline was 20 April 2027 at 23:59, with an award decision due by 20 May 2027 at 23:59. The contract is scheduled to run from 20 June 2027 to 20 June 2077. Estimated Post Office fees for the current location are £9,450 to £10,500 per year; the published lot value is £9,450 gross. Applications are assessed first through a mandatory pass/fail review of the business plan and finances, followed by an assessment of suitability to run a Post Office branch.

This opportunity suits a retailer able to add Post Office services to an established business or develop a suitable new retail business. Applicants need to demonstrate financial viability through their business plan and finances, since failing that assessment prevents progression to the suitability stage. They must also show that they are suitable to run a Post Office branch and can support a sustainable, customer-facing operation over the long contract term. The requirement is expressly suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. It may therefore suit independent retailers, community shops and other local businesses with an appropriate premises, reliable operating capacity and a credible plan for integrating counter services into their existing opening hours.
