UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Hywel Dda University Health Board is commissioning an experienced public arts and health organisation to develop and deliver a high-quality arts and creative engagement commission for Atriwm, the new regional Integrated Health and Wellbeing hub in central Carmarthen, Carmarthenshire. The requirement covers artistic and literary creation and interpretation services, with the work supporting the hub’s health and wellbeing environment through creative engagement. NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership is managing the procurement for the Health Board. Delivery is in Carmarthen, within Carmarthenshire. This opportunity is suited to organisations that can combine public art practice with health, wellbeing and community engagement, and can provide a complete service from development through to delivery of the commission.

The process has reached tender: the buyer invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Enquiries could be submitted until 12:00 on 9 September 2026, and offers were due electronically by 12:00 on 16 September 2026. The contract period is from 19 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. The estimated value is £50,000 excluding VAT, or £60,000 including VAT. There is one lot. Evaluation gives 20% to commercial considerations, 50% to technical quality and 30% to social value. Electronic submission was allowed through the buyer’s e-tendering system. The procurement is governed by Welsh devolved regulations and is below the applicable threshold.

This opportunity suits an experienced public arts and health organisation with a strong track record of developing and delivering creative commissions in public, community or healthcare settings. Relevant suppliers should be able to shape an engaging artistic programme for an integrated health and wellbeing hub, translate creative ideas into a practical delivery plan and work effectively with the people and communities connected to the facility. The requirement is likely to favour teams combining artistic, engagement and project-delivery skills, with the capacity to manage the commission through to completion. Social value is a significant part of the assessment, so bidders should be able to demonstrate wider community, social or local benefits arising from their approach. Small and medium-sized enterprises are considered suitable to compete.
