Summary of the contracting process

Cyngor Gwynedd commissioned construction works to improve the footway between Lon Golff and the beach slipway in Abersoch, Gwynedd. The work concerns access infrastructure linking the road and the beach slipway, and is classified as construction work. The contracting authority is Cyngor Gwynedd, based at the Council Offices in Caernarfon. Delivery is in Abersoch. This is a local authority works requirement rather than a supply or professional services contract, so it is most relevant to civil engineering, groundworks, footway construction and related access-infrastructure contractors operating in or able to work in the Gwynedd area. The requirement was arranged as a single lot and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold open competition. The tender deadline was 23 January 2026 at 13:00, after an enquiry deadline of 16 January 2026 at 13:00. The estimated lot value was £250,000 excluding VAT, or £300,000 including VAT. The contract was signed on 30 January 2026 and awarded to Anglesey & Gwynedd Groundworks LTD. The signed contract value is £38,996.87. Its contract period runs from 2 February 2026 to 27 February 2026. Evaluation weighted technical quality at 20% and commercial price at 80%. Electronic submission was allowed. The contract is recorded as active and the tender status is complete.

For a future requirement of this type, credible suppliers would need practical construction and groundworks capability for footways, slipways and associated public access infrastructure. Experience working in coastal or exposed locations would be relevant to delivering works around a beach slipway, while the ability to manage interfaces between existing paths, roads and beach access would support a convincing technical submission. Suppliers should be able to compete primarily on commercial price, while still demonstrating an adequate technical approach, because price carried the greater evaluation weighting. The award to Anglesey & Gwynedd Groundworks LTD, an SME, indicates that a smaller specialist contractor can be well placed for this kind of local authority works package. Local knowledge and capacity to deliver short-duration works in Abersoch would also strengthen competitiveness.
