## Summary

The procurement process for the Vivian Engine House Restoration project, led by the City & County of Swansea, has reached the award stage. Despite its cancellation, this project aimed to secure the grade II listed building at Hafod Copper Works, Swansea, making it wind and weather tight, in accordance with Cadw's control framework. Situated in the UKL18 region, the procurement falls under the industry category of works, specifically within "General public services". The project was initiated through a limited procurement method due to late additional funding from Welsh Government TRI, necessitating urgency which bypassed the standard competitive procedures.

This tender presented an opportunity for businesses skilled in historical building restoration, particularly those adept with urgent timeframes, like John Weaver, who were initially contracted under similar restoration projects. Companies with capabilities in construction and specialised restoration works could find this type of project suitable for growth, especially those experienced with working under urgent and unforeseen conditions. The procurement process using an award procedure without prior publication, details a unique opportunity for businesses that are able to rapidly mobilise and comply with urgent requirements, highlighting the niche market segment within public procurement.

### Procurement Information

The Council has received late additional funding from Welsh Government TRI funding. Therefore for reasons of extreme urgency brought about by events unforeseeable by the contracting authority as the funding was received late , the time limits for the open or restricted procedures or competitive procedures with negotiation cannot be complied with. Otherwise the Council will forego the allocated funding. These unforeseen circumstances necessitate the awarding of the contract to John Weaver who were procured through a compliant process to undertake Musgrave Engine House Restoration
