Summary of the contracting process

Caerphilly County Borough Council is progressing through its procurement stages for a term service contract dedicated to the maintenance of coal tips from 2026 to 2030, with the potential for a five-year extension. The procurement is handled via an open procedure and falls under the works category, focusing primarily on construction and civil engineering works. The contract encompasses the UKL16 region, within Caerphilly, and aims to ensure safety and compliance across former colliery sites through a comprehensive maintenance programme. Key stages of the procurement include planning, tendering, and awarding, with significant dates ranging from tender initiation in November 2025 to contract commencement on 1st April 2026 and potential renewal until December 2035. The standstill period concludes by 16th March 2026, facilitating the finalisation of the contract award anticipated by 20th March 2026.

This contract presents substantial opportunities for civil engineering firms, particularly those with expertise in drainage works, earthworks, and rapid response management. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) specialising in construction and safety compliance are well-positioned to benefit, given the open nature of the tender process and the emphasis on quality and safety criteria. The procurement seeks not only to mitigate risks associated with coal tips but also to enhance the environmental safety and infrastructure within the region, promising business growth for firms adept in these areas. Tenderers can express their interest and submit proposals via the Proactis Supplier Portal, ensuring they align with CPV codes and adhere to the stringent safety and environmental management expectations laid out by Caerphilly County Borough Council. The project underscores the commitment to social value through collaborations and effective risk management strategies.
