UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, managed by Blaenau Gwent County Borough Council, focused on the project titled "Safe Routes in Communities: Swfrydd Road Llanhilleth," in the locations of Ebbw Vale and Llanhilleth within the UKL16 region of the United Kingdom. This project fell under the industry category of site preparation, and construction and civil engineering works. The procurement method employed was a limited competition, below threshold. Having concluded the process with an award stage on 7 November 2025, the contract was consequently awarded on 28 October 2025. The contract period is specified to begin on 19 November 2025 and is set to complete on 27 February 2026, with a milestone set for future signature by 18 November 2025. The initiative adheres to the Welsh devolved regulations, directed by public authority guidelines.

This tender represents a substantial business opportunity within the civil engineering and construction industry, particularly for small to medium enterprises like Nigel Sullivan Groundwork and Plant Hire Ltd, who secured the contract. With a procurement value of £209,921, this project can significantly augment business portfolios specializing in site preparation and civil work projects. Companies geared towards infrastructure improvement can find this opportunity particularly advantageous, given the potential for enhancing community transport routes and contributing to public infrastructure improvements. Businesses that emphasise local development and have capabilities in delivering such transformative projects would be well-suited to compete in similar procurement processes.
