Summary of the contracting process

The Police & Crime Commissioner of North Wales is seeking a building contractor for works at Force Headquarters in Colwyn Bay. The project will relocate the police recycling centre, extend the existing archive store and refurbish the current archive facility, including associated waste-storage works. It is a construction project, classified under police station construction work (CPV 45216111). The scope is supported by a bill of quantities, schedule of works, drawings and method-statement questions. Contractors will need to price the build and refurbishment works against the provided bill of quantities and review the project’s drawings and requirements. The opportunity is for one package of works at the Force Headquarters site in Colwyn Bay.

The procurement has reached tender: the buyer invited offers through an open procedure. Enquiries were due by 9 October 2026 at 12:00 BST, and tenders were due by 30 October 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The contract is scheduled to run from 11 January 2027 to 10 January 2029, with the award decision due by 1 December 2026. The estimated value is £2,000,000 excluding VAT (£2,400,000 including VAT). Bids are evaluated 70% on total build and refurbishment cost and 30% on answers to eight quality questions. Suppliers must provide accounts for the previous two years and evidence of previous works of similar value and size. Submissions can be made in English or Welsh.

This opportunity suits building contractors with the capacity to deliver a substantial archive-store extension, refurbishment and waste-storage relocation project over a two-year contract period. It is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Strong candidates will be able to demonstrate comparable construction and refurbishment projects of similar value and scale, supported by clear delivery methods and answers to the quality questions. The project requires careful review of the bill of quantities, schedule of works and drawings, with pricing completed against the buyer’s documents. Key project-team members must be put through the specified Premium Expedited Service vetting process. Each uploaded file or document must be no larger than 500KB, and the complete bid pack must not exceed 15MB.
