Section VI: Complementary information
VI.3) Additional information
Due to time constraints from the urgent requirement of this facility it was not possible to undertake a tendering exercise and so two contractors from the South West Wales Regional Contractor’s Framework 2020 (SWWRCF 2020) were approached to confirm capacity to carry out the works. Swansea Council are the Principal Contractor and both Kier Construction Limited and T Richard Jones (Betws) Ltd are both sub-contractors.
Due to the emergency nature of these works it is not possible to establish a contract sum. The estimated outturn costs will be 10,000,000 GBP - 15,000,000 GBP (combined for both contracts).
The full costs associated by this contract will be reimbursed by The Swansea Bay University Health Board.
