Summary of the contracting process

Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board is procuring Phase 2 ligature reduction works at the Heddfan Mental Health Unit within Wrexham Maelor Hospital. The project is intended to improve patient safety and enhance the therapeutic environment in mental health facilities. The requirement is construction work, covering interventions to reduce ligature risks within the unit. The Health Board is the buying organisation, with NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, managing the procurement. Delivery is at Wrexham Maelor Hospital in Wrexham, Wales. The opportunity concerns a single works package for a healthcare environment, so it is relevant to contractors able to undertake specialist building, refurbishment or safety improvement works in operational mental health facilities.

The procurement has reached the tender stage: the buyer invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Bids may be submitted electronically. The deadline for enquiries was 17 September 2026 at 12:00, and the tender submission deadline is 21 September 2026 at 12:00. The contract period is from 1 November 2026 to 31 March 2027. There is one lot, with an estimated value of £970,000 excluding VAT and £1,164,000 including VAT. Offers will be evaluated on 60% commercial considerations and 40% technical quality. The technical assessment is weighted at 40%, while the commercial assessment is weighted at 60%. The procurement is governed by the Procurement Act 2023.

This opportunity suits a suitably qualified and experienced construction contractor with demonstrable capability in ligature reduction, healthcare refurbishment or related patient-safety works. Suppliers should be able to plan and deliver construction interventions within a mental health unit, where the therapeutic environment and safety of patients are central to the outcome. Experience of working in sensitive healthcare settings would position a bidder well, particularly where works must be coordinated around clinical operations, staff and service users. The requirement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to specialist regional contractors as well as larger construction businesses. Firms should have the workforce, site-management arrangements and technical competence needed to deliver a substantial single works package at a hospital.
