Summary of the contracting process

The City & County of Swansea is buying design and construction work to improve bike trails at Coed Gwilym and Parc Coed Bach. At Coed Gwilym, woodland jump trails are to be redesigned and rebuilt, informed by community consultation. At Parc Coed Bach, the existing junior trail is to be refurbished and realigned. The aim at both sites is to create well-designed trails that flow, keep riding separate from other park users, and use durable, easy-to-maintain construction. Each site has its own specification covering existing conditions, design objectives and required work. The work is in Swansea, Wales, and is classified as construction for leisure and sporting facilities (CPV 45212000).

The buyer invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. This is one lot, with an estimated value of £63,200 including VAT. The contract period is 23 November 2026 to 25 March 2027. The deadline for questions was 10 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC, and the tender submission deadline was 17 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC. Award is based on quality (90%) and price (10%). Quality covers contractor proposals (60%), project delivery team (10%), programme (10%) and construction design and management (CDM) (10%). The price score is based on the total of the price list and model compensation event. Suppliers must register on the Central Digital Platform and eTenderWales to participate; electronic submission is allowed.

The opportunity suits small and medium-sized businesses, including specialist trail builders and contractors able to deliver work in woodland and park settings. Bidders need to demonstrate a capable project delivery team, a credible programme and strong construction proposals tailored to two different sites. Proposals should show how the fixed site budgets will be used effectively while delivering trails that flow, separate riders from other park users and are durable and straightforward to maintain. The evaluation places greatest weight on the contractor’s proposals, so suppliers with relevant trail design and construction experience and the ability to explain their approach against each site’s specification are well placed to compete. The stated criteria also assess price, programme, team and CDM.
