Summary of the contracting process

Monmouthshire County Council has awarded a contract for the "Clydach Gateway Design" project, aimed at enhancing the visitor gateway to the Clydach ironworks and surrounding area in Monmouthshire, UK. The procurement process was initiated within the framework of the Heads of the Valleys Legacy Funding from the Welsh Government. The process, which followed an open competition method of procurement, has now reached the contract award stage as of 17 October 2025, with Monmouthshire County Council acting as the buyer. The appointed supplier is Alistair Burroughs Design Partnership Ltd, who will provide services including graphic design and construction project management, with the contract running from 29 September 2025 to 31 March 2027.
