Summary of the contracting process

The Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) has completed a public procurement process for the Rhydymwyn Site Flood Prevention Emergency Works. Located in the UK, particularly in London for the buyer's address and Denbighshire for the supplier, the contract falls under the 'works' category with a focus on flood-defences maintenance. The procurement method used was direct, classified as below threshold and executed without competition. Significant dates include the contract's active period from 22nd September 2025 to 13th October 2025, with the contract signed on 15th September 2025. The total gross value of the contract stands at £88,000 with a net amount of £74,000 in GBP.

This procurement presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in emergency infrastructure works, particularly those experienced in flood-defence systems. Given its size, SMEs involved in engineering and construction sectors may find such contracts suitable for expanding their project portfolio. The chosen supplier, AEDC Limited, is classified as an SME and indicates a preference for companies that can rapidly mobilise resources for urgent works. Businesses seeking growth in public sector contracts would benefit from forming strategic partnerships with central government bodies such as DEFRA, which regularly require niche services tailored to environmental and public safety needs.
