Pipeline intelligence · planning stage: how this market runs before the tender is published
How Neath Port Talbot County Borough Council buys Other building completion work (CPV 4545), and who usually turns up
Neath Port Talbot County Borough Council’s published record next to the market for the same work. Compared with other frameworks and DPS only. Whole-market view: Other building completion work (CPV 4545) →
How the contest usually goes
Winner shares use published awards; bid and price charts use contested lots.
i
How often small and medium firms win.
Share of awards where the winner’s size is known.
The counts under this question show how many awards have a known supplier size.
Small firms have won here. Neither number says whether you qualify; it describes who has been winning.
i
How often local firms win similar work.
Winners with a registered address in the delivery region, out of awards with a known address.
Local means the winner is registered in the region where that award was delivered.
A local branch does not count if the registered address is elsewhere.
Most of this buyer’s recorded winners were registered in the region where that award was delivered.
i
How long buyers here take to decide after bids close.
Middle value in days from the bid deadline to the award date, on competitions that published both.
Only decided tenders count, so slow ones still waiting are not in.
Half of these awards have an award date within 83 days of the bid deadline.
i
How often work is awarded with no recorded rival.
Direct awards and tenders where every published lot count shows one bid.
The market share is a minimum: some awards have no bid count.
Thin markets produce this too; it is not proof of a tailored specification.
Direct awards or one recorded bid are common here. Check the route before spending time on a bid.
How many bids did past lots attract?
i
How many bids past lots received.
Each colour is a bid-count range. Only competed lots with a published count are included.
Past bids do not predict this tender.
1 bid4% / 2%
2–320% / 22%
4–640% / 29%
7+36% / 47%
How did awards compare with estimates?
i
Where winning prices landed against estimates.
Each colour shows awards below, close to or above the published estimate, one lot at a time.
On a framework or DPS, prices are agreed when work is called off.
Past prices are a guide, not a bid price.
Not comparable on a framework or DPS: the price is set later, on each call-off.

About this data
- Source. Official UK public procurement notices (Find a Tender), reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0. New notices arrive through the day; the figures are rebuilt nightly.
- Two views, kept apart. The authority’s own track record and the wider market for the same kind of work sit side by side and are never mixed. Where the local picture is too thin, a figure widens to a broader market and says which one it used.
- Forecasts are labelled. The price forecast and its range, possible competitors and the earlier-work matches are our estimates from past awards: not published facts, not win chances and not price advice. Official notices do not say who is bidding.
- Every figure shows what it rests on. Not every notice publishes a bid count, a value or a delivery region, so each figure carries the number of records behind it, and one built on few records is marked as such. The on a figure explains it; the counting rules are in the methodology. Spotted something wrong? Tell us.

Neath Port Talbot County Borough Council (NPTCBC) are planning to procure a multi-Lot Minor Works Open Framework in the next few months and wish to use this UK2 Pre-Market Engagement Notice to invite suppliers to attend a Business Wales-supported ‘Meet The Buyer’ event at Blanco's Hotel & Restaurant, Green Park, Port Talbot SA12 6NT
on the morning of Wednesday 2nd September 2026 (tea/coffee provided from 8.30am to be ready to start at 9.30am until 1pm.).
NPTCBC wish to use this preliminary event to engage with the current supplier market regarding the potential opportunities available within the proposed Minor Works Open Framework Lot categories below:
- Roofing;
- Specialist Flooring;
- Scaffolding;
- Mechanical a) Air-conditioning; b) Heating; c) Plumbing;
- Electrical;
- General Minor Works below £50,000;
- General Minor Works between £50,000 and £250,000;
- Fencing;
- Glazing;
(please note that the above list may be subject to change prior to the tender going live)
NPTCBC officers will outline the scope of Minor Works along with the proposed Lotting structure detailed above, as well as the Open Framework procurement process and the provisional timetable from live publishing through to final award. The Social Value elements required by the framework in relation to each Lot will also be discussed, with Business Wales in attendance to provide advice and guidance on how to bid for opportunities through Sell2Wales
Companies involved in the provision of the above categories are warmly invited to attend this pre-market engagement event which will include initial presentations and then opportunities for suppliers to break into discussion groups with NPTCBC officers. This informal opportunity will include typical examples of the types of construction and maintenance works likely to be included within the framework scope, as well as the call-off processes and Open Framework re-assessment procedures.
In order for us to cater adequately, please could we ask you to book via the link below, noting that suppliers are restricted to 2 attendees per business:
