This initiative falls under the works category within the construction industry and focuses on remediation at the Baglan Bay site in South Wales. The objective is to transform the area, which was formerly used as a chemical site, into a safe environment, contributing to regional redevelopment. An online presentation and site visit are scheduled for March and April 2026, providing opportunities for potential suppliers to engage with the project ahead of the formal tender process commencing in the latter part of 2026. Implemented under the Competitive Flexible Procedure of the Procurement Act 2023, contractors will be tasked with various responsibilities from design to implementation and validation of remediation techniques. This procurement opportunity offers promising avenues for business growth, particularly for companies specialising in construction and environmental remediation. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) positively match the suitability criteria, allowing wide participation in the competitive process. With an estimated gross contract value of £120 million GBP, businesses capable of delivering quality remediation solutions stand to benefit significantly from engaging with this project. The Welsh Government is committed to ensuring fair market engagement, providing two key interaction opportunities for companies through site visits and online presentations. These sessions aim to arm potential bidders with essential insights, fostering well-informed competition and mitigating the risk of unfair advantage. ## Notice The Baglan Bay site, in the South Wales area was previously operated as a chemical works and was acquired in 2022. The aspiration for the development of the site is to transform the area through the creation of high-quality jobs, creating a safe and higher quality environment for local people, and to contribute to the wider redevelopment of the region. However, due to previous usage of the site, remediation will be required to safely bring the site back into the wider public sphere.
