Potential bidders can attend a virtual "Meet the Buyer" event on 24th September 2025, with slots bookable by 22nd September 2025. The procurement involves services in architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection domains, with an emphasis on delivering bilingually in Welsh and English, and the tender will be evaluated based on a quality-price ratio of 80:20.
