Engagement

Engagement process description

Ceredigion County Council undertook two periods of preliminary market engagement in relation to the proposed Mobile Coverage and Capacity Project. The first phase took place between September 2024 and November 2024, followed by a second phase between February 2026 and April 2026.

The engagement was undertaken to inform the Authority's requirements, delivery approach and procurement strategy. No supplier was selected, shortlisted or provided with any commitment regarding a future procurement opportunity as a result of participating.

Feedback received from mobile network operators, neutral-host providers and telecommunications infrastructure suppliers indicated market interest in the project and highlighted a range of potential delivery approaches. Responses suggested that, in some locations, enhancing existing infrastructure may provide a more proportionate and sustainable solution than developing entirely new sites.

The outcomes of both engagement phases have informed the Authority's developing approach; however, they have not determined the final specification, procurement procedure, award criteria or any future supplier.

All eligible organisations will be able to participate in any future procurement. Relevant non-confidential information and key findings from the market engagement activities will be shared with all prospective tenderers through the procurement documentation to ensure a fair, transparent and competitive process.

Mae Cyngor Sir Ceredigion wedi cynnal dau gyfnod o ymgysylltu rhagarweiniol â'r farchnad mewn perthynas â'r Prosiect Arfaethedig ar gyfer Cwmpas a Chapasiti Symudol. Cynhaliwyd y cyfnod cyntaf rhwng mis Medi 2024 a mis Tachwedd 2024, ac yna ail gyfnod rhwng mis Chwefror 2026 a mis Ebrill 2026.

Cynhaliwyd yr ymgysylltu er mwyn llywio gofynion yr Awdurdod, y dull cyflawni a'r strategaeth gaffael. Ni chafodd unrhyw gyflenwr ei ddewis, ei roi ar restr fer na’i sicrhau unrhyw ymrwymiad ynghylch unrhyw gyfle caffael yn y dyfodol o ganlyniad i gymryd rhan yn yr ymgysylltu.

Dangosodd yr adborth a gafwyd gan weithredwyr rhwydweithiau symudol, darparwyr seilwaith niwtral a chyflenwyr seilwaith telathrebu fod diddordeb yn y farchnad yn y prosiect, a thynnodd sylw at amrywiaeth o ddulliau cyflawni posibl. Awgrymodd yr ymatebion y gallai gwella’r seilwaith presennol, mewn rhai lleoliadau, ddarparu ateb mwy cymesur a chynaliadwy na datblygu safleoedd newydd yn llwyr.

Mae canfyddiadau'r ddau gyfnod ymgysylltu wedi llywio dull gweithredu datblygol yr Awdurdod; fodd bynnag, nid ydynt wedi pennu'r fanyleb derfynol, y weithdrefn gaffael, y meini prawf dyfarnu nac unrhyw gyflenwr yn y dyfodol.

Bydd pob sefydliad cymwys yn gallu cymryd rhan mewn unrhyw broses gaffael yn y dyfodol. Bydd gwybodaeth berthnasol nad yw’n gyfrinachol a phrif ganfyddiadau’r gweithgareddau ymgysylltu â’r farchnad yn cael eu rhannu â phob darpar dendrwr drwy'r dogfennau caffael er mwyn sicrhau proses deg, dryloyw a chystadleuol.
