Summary of the contracting process

Newport City Council initiated a public procurement process for the "Catsash Road Water Drainage" project in Newport, United Kingdom, focusing within the industry category of ground-drainage work. The procurement followed an open competition method below threshold, applicable under Welsh devolved regulations. The procurement process commenced with a tender notice on 30th January 2026, followed by an award and contract signing on 9th March 2026. The contract was scheduled to complete by 30th June 2026, though a renewal option was offered until the work concluded. However, the contract ultimately reached a completed and terminated status by July 2026. The project's procurement was conducted on the basis of an open method, ensuring transparency and competitive bidding opportunities.

This tender offered significant growth opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), as these groups were explicitly marked suitable for participation. Companies specialising in ground-drainage work could leverage this opportunity to showcase their capabilities in enhancing infrastructure resilience, such as installing larger catchpits and carrier drains to mitigate the existing system's blockages and reduce maintenance. Firms that can present strong technical and commercial capabilities would find the evaluation criteria favourable, with a focus on both quality and price contributing to the final decision. This tender provided a chance for business expansion and demonstrated engagement with public entities like Newport City Council, enhancing a company's portfolio for future works.

Notice Title

NCC202500254 - Catsash Road Water Drainage

Notice Description

The existing drainage system is prone to blockages and requires increased maintenance due to its current design (e.g., the gullies are daisy-chained).The proposed design is to install a carrier drain, replace the existing gullies with larger catchpits, and connect them to the new carrier drain. This will improve the resilience of the drainage system and reduce future reactive maintenance.
