## Summary

Caerphilly County Borough Council is seeking works to automate the main pedestrian gate at Bryn Awel Primary School in Rhymney. The project includes excavating a trench from the gate to the rear plant room and installing cables, fitting inspection chambers where needed, and reinstating disturbed surfaces with macadam. The contractor must also provide Heras fencing around the work area to prevent unauthorised access, supply the necessary fixed scaffolding, and relocate the office control button to the main entrance. This is electrical installation and associated mechanical and electrical equipment installation work. The delivery location is the school in Rhymney, within Caerphilly County Borough.

The buyer invited tenders through an open competition. This is a single-lot works contract, with the whole project evaluated on price: total project cost under the pricing schedule accounts for 100% of the score. The buyer set 6 November 2026 at 23:59 as the deadline for questions and 13 November 2026 at 12:00 as the tender submission deadline. The contract period is scheduled to run from 23 November to 17 December 2026. The estimated value is £35,000 excluding VAT (£42,000 including VAT). Bids may be submitted electronically through the Proactis supplier portal; queries are to be sent through its messaging system. Selection requirements are referred to in the invitation-to-tender document.

This opportunity is suited to small and medium-sized businesses able to deliver electrical installation work at a primary school, including cable installation between the pedestrian gate and plant room and automation of the gate. The contractor also needs to manage the associated site works: trench excavation, inspection chambers, macadam reinstatement, work-area fencing, fixed scaffolding and relocation of the gate control button. Suppliers should be able to coordinate these activities within a short, defined school-site project and protect the public from unauthorised access to the work area. The procurement sets price as the sole scored award factor, so competitive pricing against the pricing schedule is central to the bid. Further selection requirements are set out in the tender documents.
