## Summary

Tai Tarian Ltd is planning a single-contractor building project for the Menai Avenue development in Wales. The proposed scheme covers three parcels of land and is expected to deliver 29 residential units: four walk-up flats on Parcel 1; a supported-living building with nine units on Parcel 2; and ten walk-up flats, two houses and four bungalows on Parcel 3. The works also include drainage, infrastructure, highways, external works and landscaping. This is a construction works requirement, classified under CPV 45210000. The delivery location is in the UKL1 area of Wales. The buyer is Tai Tarian Ltd, a Welsh housing organisation, and is seeking one contractor to deliver the complete development rather than separate suppliers for different packages.

This procurement is at the planning stage and is currently a pre-market engagement exercise, not an invitation to tender. Tai Tarian expects to hold a Meet the Buyer session on 7 October 2026, with registration requested by 1 October 2026 at 17:00. The buyer anticipates publishing a contract notice on 1 November 2026, after the engagement exercise. The expected contract period is from 1 February 2027 to 31 January 2029. The estimated value is £5,000,000 excluding VAT, or £6,000,000 including VAT. There is one planned lot covering the whole development. Tai Tarian may change its requirements before the contract notice, and discussions during engagement will not form part of any later tender evaluation.

The scheme is likely to suit experienced principal building contractors able to take single-point responsibility for a multi-parcel residential development, including supported living accommodation, flats, houses and bungalows. Relevant capability includes new-build construction, coordination of drainage and infrastructure, highway works, external works and landscaping, with sufficient capacity to manage delivery across the full programme. Tai Tarian is seeking contractors able to explain their experience on similar projects, lessons learned and innovative approaches to delivery. The buyer is also asking the market what makes a contract attractive and why suppliers want to work with Tai Tarian. Small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises are identified as suitable participants. Suppliers can use the engagement to prepare and help shape the developing requirement.

## Notice

### Planning Information

To register your interest in attending please email procurement@taitarian.co.uk
The deadline to register is Thursday 1st October 2026 at 17:00pm
The session will allow interested contractors the opportunity to meet with Tai Tarian’s representatives to gain an understanding of our requirements. In addition to this, Tai Tarian hopes that by providing this opportunity, contractors can demonstrate what is currently possible in the market and help shape our requirements moving forward.
For example, we are asking for interested contractors to tell us:
• What makes a contract attractive to them.
• Their experience of undertaking similar contracts.
• Lessons learnt from previous contracts.
• Why they want to work with Tai Tarian.
• Innovative ways of working (doing things differently).
Please note that the ‘Meet the Buyer’ session will only be carried out on Wednesday 7th October 2026 and that time slots will be allocated on a first come first served basis. When all slots are filled, we will be unable to extend this session further.
Please note that recording an interest is voluntary and potential tenderers will not be advantaged or disadvantaged through participation in the ‘Meet the Buyer’ event and any discussions held will not form part of any formal tender process. Tai Tarian reserves the right to change its requirements prior to the Contract Notice being issued and this pre-market engagement does not commit Tai Tarian to undertake any procurement process. 
It is anticipated that a Contract Notice will be published following completion of the Pre-Market Engagement exercise.
