What does CPV code 45000000 cover?
Division 45 is construction work — the largest CPV division by value in UK public procurement. It spans new build, refurbishment, civil engineering, highways, demolition and specialist trades (roofing, M&E installation, scaffolding) across codes 45100000–45500000.
How do I win Construction work contracts in Wales?
Get positioned on the frameworks and DPS lists your target clients actually use (check their previous awards to see which), because mid-value works rarely reach the open market. Bids are scored on social value (typically 10–20%), site-specific methodology and programme credibility rather than lowest price; for sub-£500k lots, local SMEs genuinely win if they evidence relevant completed jobs with referee contacts, CHAS/Constructionline accreditation and realistic prelims. Register on Sell2Wales and eTenderWales — Welsh buyers use them as the primary route, including for sub-threshold notices. Bids are scored on well-being and social-partnership duties (the Well-being of Future Generations Act shapes evaluation questions), and Welsh-language service capability is a genuine requirement for citizen-facing contracts, so address it explicitly rather than ignoring it.
