This venture falls under the category of hospital facilities construction work, specifically addressing long-term cancer care needs in South East Wales. The procurement method is selective, with the tender period ending on 21 June 2021 and an invitation to participate in dialogue expected to be issued to selected bidders from 12 July 2021. The project aims to establish a modern facility that aligns with the Velindre Cancer Strategy 2016-2026 and incorporates a greenfield site within the NHS Wales estate. This tender provides a substantial opportunity for construction companies, particularly those experienced in healthcare and public-private partnerships. Firms offering expertise in design, build, finance, and facilities management services will be well-positioned to compete for this project. Additionally, businesses that can deliver community benefits, such as apprenticeships and local employment opportunities, will have a competitive edge in their submissions. The project promises long-term business growth potential as it aims to meet future healthcare demands while fostering economic development in the region. ## Notice Velindre University NHS Trust (the "Contracting Authority") is seeking tenders for the design, construction, finance and maintenance of the New Velindre Cancer Centre (the "Project") which will be situated on a greenfield site, owned by the Contracting Authority, at Whitchurch, North Cardiff. The Contracting Authority proposes to procure the Project through the Welsh Government's Mutual Investment Model ("MIM") which is a specific model for procuring public private partnerships in Wales. The new state of the art cancer centre facility (anticipated to be approximately 32,000m2) is to be designed, constructed, financed and maintained by the special purpose vehicle ("Project Co") established by the economic operator who is awarded the contract (the "Successful Participant") to support the vision and aims detailed within the Velindre NHS Trust publication 'Velindre Cancer Strategy 2016-2026, Shaping our future together'. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Following Welsh Government's announcement of ministerial approval for the development of a new Velindre cancer centre for South East Wales, on 19 March 2021. the Contracting Authority is seeking tenders for the Project. The Contracting Authority's vision for the Project is for a Velindre Cancer Centre which has the strength to last for the long-term, which promotes excellence in future cancer services and which exceeds the expectations of the future generations who use it. The Project is expected to deliver the requirements of the Well-Being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015. The current Velindre Cancer Centre was built in 1956, has been repeatedly extended and is now fast approaching the end of its useful life. The Project is one of three pathfinder projects for the Welsh Government's innovative Mutual Investment Model (MIM) Programme. The Programme has been established to support investment in capital infrastructure in Wales. The site for the Project is located in Whitchurch, North Cardiff. It is part of the NHS Wales estate and outline planning permission was granted in March 2018. The Contracting Authority is currently procuring enabling works to prepare the site for the New Velindre Cancer Centre MIM Project and to enable multiple accesses. It is currently anticipated such enabling works will be complete in advance of financial close of the Project and will not therefore form part of the Project itself. However, there may be some efficiencies or benefits derived from aspects of the works being carried out by Project Co in conjunction with the Works. The main access for the site will be through the neighbouring Asda estate. Access agreements have been secured with Asda that deal with the conditions applicable to the use of such access. Additional construction access is also being secured through another entrance. The Contracting Authority has a reference design for the new cancer centre. Reference designs have been used to achieve outline planning permission and to assess the practicality of, and affordability of, the Project. The reference design will be used as a reference tool in the procurement and dialogue process. It is assumed the design will be improved upon by each economic operator's own proposals. As required under the MIM Standard Form Project Agreement - Accommodation, 'soft FM' services will be retained by the Contracting Authority and elements of 'hard FM' services will be carried out by Project Co during the operational phase of the contract. It is anticipated that as part of the Project, the Project Co will provide the hard facilities management to the building and an element of external grounds for the new cancer centre. This will include provision of programmed maintenance, asset lifecycle replacement and reactive maintenance, helpdesk services, interface services, performance monitoring and reporting. The cancer centre includes radiotherapy treatment equipment that will be procured separately by the Contracting Authority and interfaced with the project operations under the MIM Project. The Contracting Authority will be responsible for the specification, selection, procurement, installation, commissioning, maintenance, replacement, decommissioning and disposal of such equipment. However, it is anticipated that the Project Co will be responsible for the delivery, installation and associated technical commissioning of other items of major medical equipment (such as MRI and CT scanners) with the Authority being responsible for the specification, selection, procurement, clinical commissioning, maintenance, replacement, decommissioning and disposal of such equipment. The public sector has the right to invest alongside one or more private sector equity providers. A 15% equity investment by the public sector is envisaged for the Project. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/022264-2021 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Competitive dialogue | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 8 Sep 2021 | | Submission deadline | 21 Jun 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £562,000,000 | | Lots value | £562,000,000 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | VELINDRE UNIVERSITY NHS TRUST | | Locality | CARDIFF | | Post town | Cardiff | | Postcode | CF14 2TL | | Country | Wales | | ITL 1 | TLL Wales | | ITL 2 | TLL5 South East Wales | | ITL 3 | TLL52 Cardiff and Vale of Glamorgan | | Local authority | Cardiff | | Electoral ward | Whitchurch and Tongwynlais | | Westminster constituency | Cardiff North | | Delivery location | TLL22 Cardiff and Vale of Glamorgan | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work - 50 - Repair and maintenance services - 51 - Installation services (except software) - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support - 77 - Agricultural, forestry, horticultural, aquacultural and apicultural services - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security - 98 - Other community, social and personal services ### Codes - 45000000 - Construction work - 45100000 - Site preparation work - 45215100 - Construction work for buildings relating to health - 45215140 - Hospital facilities construction work - 45300000 - Building installation work - 45314300 - Installation of cable infrastructure - 45400000 - Building completion work - 45452000 - Exterior cleaning work for buildings - 50700000 - Repair and maintenance services of building installations - 51410000 - Installation services of medical equipment - 71200000 - Architectural and related services - 71300000 - Engineering services - 71314200 - Energy-management services - 72253100 - Helpdesk services - 77314000 - Grounds maintenance services - 79993000 - Building and facilities management services - 79993100 - Facilities management services - 98341000 - Accommodation services ## Release History - 8 Sep 2021 at 12:05 - TenderUpdate - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/022264-2021 - 22 Apr 2021 at 10:25 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/008602-2021 ## Notice URLs - http://www.transformingcancerservices.wales - https://etenderwales.bravosolution.co.uk/home.html - https://ted.europa.eu/udl?uri=TED:NOTICE:040645-2020:TEXT:EN:HTML - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/Search_AuthProfile.aspx?ID=AA0221 - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=109989 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
