UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA), a UK central government authority, has completed the procurement process for the "DEFRA Rhydymwyn Site Flood Prevention Works," aimed at emergency flood prevention in Rhydymwyn. This specific operation falls under the 'works' category and involves flood-defence maintenance. Located in London, DEFRA initiated the process without competition as a 'below threshold' direct procurement method. The project was awarded on 15th September 2025, with a contract active period from 22nd September to 13th October 2025, and the notice was published on 20th October 2025. The supplier, AEDC Limited, based in Denbighshire, was selected for this project under Contract ID 066590-2025, with a total contract value of £88,000.

This procurement presents significant growth opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) involved in flood defence and infrastructure works, as demonstrated by AEDC Limited's engagement. Businesses specialising in maintenance and emergency flood prevention in particular will find such tenders lucrative due to the critical and immediate nature of the works involved. The project not only strengthens partnerships between small businesses and government bodies but also positions specialised SMEs to leverage future opportunities in environmental protection through public sector contracts. Thus, companies adept in civil engineering, environmental services, and emergency infrastructure repair are particularly well-suited to engage in similar projects.
