Summary of the contracting process

Cyngor Gwynedd procured construction works to improve bus stops and shelters across Dwyfor, Gwynedd. The requirement covers bus stop infrastructure improvements for the 2026/27 programme, with activity delivered in the United Kingdom. It is classified as construction work and falls within the works category. Cyngor Gwynedd is the buying organisation and the procurement was run under Welsh devolved public-sector arrangements. The awarded supplier, Tom James Construction Services Ltd, is based in Blaenau Ffestiniog and is recorded as a small or medium-sized enterprise. The work is therefore relevant to construction contractors with the capability to carry out physical improvements to public transport infrastructure, including bus stops and passenger shelters, in and around Gwynedd.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Tom James Construction Services Ltd. It used a below-threshold open competition. The tender closed on 28 August 2026 at 13:00, following an enquiry deadline of 21 August 2026 at 13:00. The contract was signed on 7 September 2026 and runs from 14 September 2026 to 26 February 2027. The tender and lot were estimated at £50,000 gross. The awarded contract value is £102,214.31 excluding VAT and £102,241.31 including VAT. Bids were evaluated on technical submission, weighted at 20%, and commercial submission, weighted at 80%. The lot was complete when awarded, and the contract is active.

This award shows that Cyngor Gwynedd uses an open, below-threshold route for discrete construction packages involving bus stop and shelter improvements in Dwyfor. It provides a useful benchmark for contractors targeting similar public transport infrastructure work for the council. A credible competitor would need practical construction capability, experience delivering physical improvements to roadside or passenger facilities, and the capacity to complete a defined programme of works within a council contract period. The evaluation gives substantially greater weight to commercial value than to the technical submission, while still requiring a technical response. The opportunity is identified as suitable for SMEs, so smaller regional construction businesses with relevant delivery capacity can be commercially well placed when comparable requirements return.
