UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Caerphilly County Borough Council is procuring building refurbishment works at Bargoed Library in Bargoed. The project covers renewing the render and decorating the windows on the building’s side elevation. The specified work includes applying traditional lime render and painting the windows, with the full scope set out in Appendix 1 and the invitation-to-tender documents. This is a works requirement involving construction, refurbishment and the preservation of a building of historical or architectural interest. Delivery is at Bargoed Library, for the council as the buying organisation. It is a single project rather than a multi-service framework, and would be relevant to contractors experienced in external rendering, window preparation and painting, particularly on older or heritage buildings.

The procurement has reached tender: the council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. It has one lot and awards entirely on price, using total project cost from the pricing schedule. The estimated value is £60,000 excluding VAT (£72,000 including VAT). The enquiry deadline is 2 September 2026 at 23:59. The tender description gives 4 September 2026 as the tender return date, while the structured submission deadline is 9 September 2026 at 12:00; suppliers should check the tender documents and portal carefully. The planned contract period is 28 September to 23 October 2026, lasting four weeks, with an earlier start possible by agreement. Electronic submission is allowed through the Proactis Supplier Portal.

This opportunity suits small and medium-sized building contractors able to deliver a short, focused refurbishment project at a public library. The required practical capability is traditional lime rendering to an external elevation together with preparation and painting of windows. Firms with experience working on older, historically or architecturally significant buildings are likely to be well placed, since the procurement classifications cover heritage-building refurbishment and preservation. The work requires enough capacity to mobilise for a four-week programme and coordinate completion of both rendering and decoration. The council has stated that selection requirements are set out in the invitation-to-tender document, so interested contractors should review that document for the detailed technical, financial and qualification requirements before deciding whether to bid.
