Alex Read Business Improvement Manager:

“Read Construction Holdings Ltd (Read) is an SME construction main contractor, based in Brymbo, Wrexham operating in and around North Wales.

“Being an SME, many head office staff roles are multidisciplinary, and we are unable to sustain a full time position for business opportunity identification. As such, we largely rely on opportunity notification services to highlight potential work streams.

“Read have been using Sell2Wales for over 5 years, as our primary notification service for public sector tender opportunities in our area, and have submitted numerous tenders for work opportunities advertised through the portal, with many successful outcomes.

“Amongst the success stories born from opportunities identified through Sell2Wales notices, is the Llyn Brenig visitor centre extension in Denbighshire. This 25 week contract of over £400k was awarded at the end of summer 2012, during a particularly difficult period, where tendering opportunities were scarce, within the continuing challenges of the economic climate. This opportunity not only helped safeguard existing workforce positions, but has also facilitated the formation of a relationship with a new nationwide client, whose capital works programme is extensive.

“Based on our experience tendering, our top tip would be use Sell2Wales to help be selective. Don’t waste time, money and effort chasing all opportunities, but target those opportunities that best fit your business plan and marketing strategy, bearing in mind the long term relationship building potential of new clients.”
