Framework
An agreement that sets terms for work the buyer may order later, often from several suppliers. The value shown usually covers the whole agreement, not one job.
Open for bids / closing date
You must submit by the closing date and time, normally through the buyer's own online portal. Late bids are normally refused.
Clarification questions
A deadline for asking the buyer questions about the tender. It is earlier than the closing date.
Conditions of participation
What the buyer asks suppliers to show before they can be considered, such as experience, insurance or accreditations.
Bids are scored on
How the buyer will compare bids, usually a split between price and quality. A 60/40 split in favour of quality means the cheapest bid will not necessarily win.
Lots
A tender can be split into parts. You can often bid for only the lots that suit you.
Area (ITL)
The buyer names an official statistical area for where the work is, not a street address. Check the tender documents for the actual sites.
UK4 and other notice codes
Official codes for the type of notice. A "tender notice" means bids are being invited.

Description

This Invitation to Tender (ITT) is issued by NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership Procurement Services (hosted by Velindre NHS Trust) ("NWSSP") on behalf of Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board ("the Health Board"), which will enter into the Agreement with the successful supplier. Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board is seeking to appoint a single specialist contractor to provide the inspection, testing, preventative maintenance and reactive support of Low Voltage (LV) switchgear across Health Board premises located within Rhondda Cynon Taf and Merthyr Tydfil. The scope of the contract includes the maintenance of critical electrical distribution infrastructure, including but not limited to Air Circuit Breakers (ACBs), Moulded Case Circuit Breakers (MCCBs), switch-fuses and associated LV switchgear assets. The services are required to support the safe, reliable and compliant operation of the Health Board's electrical distribution systems, helping to minimise the risk of electrical failure, fire, disruption to clinical services and impacts on patient care. Suppliers are invited to submit a tender under the Open Procedure in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023. The procurement process will result in the award of a single-supplier contract ("the Agreement"). The services will be carried out at properties situated within the geographical areas of Rhondda Cynon Taf and Merthyr Tydfil. We particularly welcome responses from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
