Summary of the contracting process

The University of South Wales is seeking construction of a car park and associated external works at its Treforest Campus in Pontypridd. The works are immediately east of the new Calon building, between that building and the Brecon building, and include vehicle and pedestrian connections to the existing campus road network. The new building will house the University’s Chiropractic clinic. The construction scope includes road surfacing and foundations, alongside the car park and external connections. This is a civil engineering and road construction requirement, suited to contractors delivering campus access and parking infrastructure.

The University invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The tender set an enquiry deadline of 13 November 2026 at 12:00 and a tender submission deadline of 27 November 2026 at 12:00; electronic submission through the eTenderWales platform was specified. The contract period is 1 February to 16 April 2027. The estimated value is £500,000 excluding VAT (£600,000 including VAT). The procurement is a single lot. Evaluation weights price at 60%, technical quality at 30% and social value at 10%. Bidders are directed to the platform’s qualification envelope for participation requirements.

This is a single, focused construction package for contractors with the capability to build a car park and undertake associated external and access works within an established university campus. Relevant delivery experience includes road and footpath foundations, road surfacing, and integrating vehicle and pedestrian routes with an existing campus road network. The requirement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses. Competition balances price with technical quality and social value, so suppliers should be prepared to demonstrate a credible technical approach and explain their social value contribution as well as provide competitive pricing. The scope may suit civil engineering and highways contractors able to coordinate construction beside university buildings and connect new infrastructure to existing campus roads.
