## Summary

Cyngor Sir Ceredigion County Council has initiated a contracting process titled "Ceredigion - Llandysul - Design Feasibility Studies for Future Site Development." This project falls under the services category, specifically involving architectural and related services. Located in Llandysul, United Kingdom, this procurement is currently in the Award stage as of 27th January 2026. The process began as a competitive tender but shifted to a direct award due to no bids being received initially. The contract, directly awarded to Common Works Architecture Ltd, commences on 2nd February 2026 and concludes on 27th April 2026. The procurement method applied is direct, and it operates within the threshold without competition.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for SMEs and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) specialising in design-led feasibility studies, architectural design, and planning services. Given the direct award approach adopted by the Council, businesses with innovative and tailored solutions in assessing site potential can significantly benefit and showcase their expertise. Participation in this project can elevate a firm's profile within the public sector and foster long-term relationships with governmental bodies. Companies focusing on pre-feasibility studies and those capable of conducting site analysis and stakeholder engagement would be particularly well-positioned to compete and contribute to the community impact and economic viability assessments outlined by the tender.

## Notice

Ceredigion County Council is making a Direct Award to Common Works to carry out design-led feasibility studies for two sites in Llandysul. While neither site is associated with a live development project, the studies will support the Council in assessing the potential for future development.Common Works will explore potential uses for each site, considering planning, design, economic viability, and community impact. The work will include site analysis, stakeholder engagement as required, high-level concept design options, and reporting to inform the Council's decision-making on whether and how future development may proceed.The contracting authority previously commenced a competitive procurement for this requirement, advertised under a UK4 tender notice. That procurement was terminated without award by way of a UK12 Procurement Termination Notice due to no bids being received.As no bids were received, the authority has determined that it is appropriate to proceed with a direct award in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023.Mae Cyngor Sir Ceredigion yn rhoi Dyfarniad Uniongyrchol i Common Works i gynnal astudiaethau dichonoldeb dan arweiniad dylunio ar gyfer dau safle yn Llandysul. Er nad yw'r naill safle na'r llall yn gysylltiedig a phrosiect datblygu byw, bydd yr astudiaethau'n cefnogi'r Cyngor i asesu'r potensial ar gyfer datblygu yn y dyfodol.Bydd Common Works yn archwilio defnyddiau posibl ar gyfer pob safle, gan ystyried cynllunio, dylunio, hyfywedd economaidd, ac effaith gymunedol. Bydd y gwaith yn cynnwys dadansoddi safle, ymgysylltu a rhanddeiliaid yn ol yr angen, opsiynau dylunio cysyniadol lefel uchel, ac adrodd i lywio penderfyniadau'r Cyngor ynghylch a all datblygiad yn y dyfodol fynd rhagddo a sut.Dechreuodd yr awdurdod contractio gaffael cystadleuol ar gyfer y gofyniad hwn yn flaenorol, a hysbysebwyd o dan hysbysiad tendr UK4. Terfynwyd y caffael hwnnw heb ddyfarnu trwy Hysbysiad Terfynu Caffael UK12 oherwydd na dderbyniwyd unrhyw gynigion.Gan na dderbyniwyd unrhyw gynigion, mae'r awdurdod wedi penderfynu ei bod yn briodol bwrw ymlaen a dyfarniad uniongyrchol yn unol a Deddf Caffael 2023.
