Summary of the contracting process

Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council has completed the procurement process titled "Llyn Y Forwyn School - Water Monitoring," focusing on services within the Architectural, Construction, Engineering and Inspection Services category. This project is located in Ferndale, UKL15, and it involves the water monitoring of boreholes at Llyn Y Forwyn School to meet planning requirements set by Natural Resources Wales (NRW). The procurement was conducted through a direct, below-threshold method without competition and has reached the award stage as of 17 February 2026. The contract, valued at £32,000 excluding VAT, was signed on 11 February 2026 and will be active until 30 April 2027, with potential renewal options available if additional monitoring is needed.
