Within the Grant Agreement (Contract) in place between TfW and Keolis Amey, Keolis Amey are able to self deliver CVL transformation works. However,TfW have a vision of creating a lasting legacy in Wales and therefore a significant portion of the CVL transformation works shall be awarded to large companies and Small - Medium Enterprises (SMEs). In this instance Keolis Amey shall act as the procuring agent and undertake the supply chain engagement, tender and evaluation process but all subsequent contracts will be between TfW and the supplier.

This page therefore relates to those works packages only. For works packages between Keolis Amey and suppliers please refer to the standalone Keolis Amey page.
