  • Cardiff and Vale University Health Board has awarded a contract for the supply, delivery, and installation of high‑care safety matting for use across mental health inpatient areas at Hafan y Coed and Barry Hospital. The existing matting was identified during regulatory inspection as degraded, non‑wipeable, and no longer compliant with Infection Prevention & Control (IP&C) requirements, creating hygiene and safety risks within high‑care clinical environments. The awarded contract provides for the replacement of all non‑compliant mats with durable, wipeable, non‑porous clinical‑grade safety matting suitable for mental health high‑care settings. The scope includes the manufacture, supply, transportation, and full installation of matting across multiple wards to ensure compliance with HIW recommendations and Health Board standards for cleanliness, safety, and patient wellbeing. The procurement supports the Health Board’s commitment to maintaining safe and hygienic clinical environments, improving infection control, reducing risk, and ensuring the suitability of high‑care areas for vulnerable patient groups. Installation will be completed within required Health Board timescales to ensure continuity of service and compliance with clinical governance expectations.Value not stated

Why this procedure was chosen
The Health Board has used the YPO Gymnasium Equipment, Maintenance and Services Framework (1262), Lot 10, as it provides a fully compliant and efficient route to market with pre‑assessed suppliers who meet required quality, financial, and governance standards. Due to the urgent need to replace non‑compliant high‑care matting and the requirement to complete expenditure within the current financial year, the framework offered the most practical and proportionate procurement method. Market benchmarking confirmed limited availability of suppliers able to meet the specification and timescales required.
