## Summary

Cardiff Council is seeking contractors for a Framework for Accelerated Adaptations, focusing on the healthcare and construction industry categories. The procurement process is at the Tender stage with essential dates including the tender submission deadline on 13th December 2024 and the award decision anticipated by 19th February 2025. The project will be conducted at various domestic properties across Cardiff and will include tasks such as installing access ramps, bathroom modifications, and other structural adaptations to aid disabled facilities. The tender is being managed under the Restricted Procedure in accordance with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, with a plan to appoint up to six contractors for an initial two-year term, extendable by an additional two years.

This tender offers substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for construction companies experienced in domestic modifications and healthcare facility adaptations. Smaller construction firms, modular furniture providers, or consortia capable of delivering comprehensive accessibility solutions may find this framework highly suitable. The rigorous requirements and potential for high volume, estimated at 57 jobs per contractor annually with an average job value of £7,000, offer consistent work and revenue. The successful firms will benefit from rotational work distribution, ensuring a steady workflow contingent on performance and capacity. This is an excellent opportunity for businesses aiming to leverage their expertise in adaptive construction and gain a foothold in public health-related projects.
