Summary of the contracting process

Cyngor Gwynedd is planning the Bontnewydd Flood Alleviation Scheme, a civil engineering and flood risk management works contract in Bontnewydd, Gwynedd. The scheme covers several locations, including areas beside the Afon Beuno and Afon Gwyrfai. Planned works include reinforced concrete flood defence walls, an earth flood bund, strengthening and replacement of existing flood defences, partial demolition of a stone wall obstruction, drainage modifications, improved access, reinstatement and environmental mitigation. The purpose is to reduce flood risk to homes, local infrastructure and community access routes, while improving the village’s long-term resilience. The procurement is classified as construction work. The buying organisation is Cyngor Gwynedd, a Welsh public authority, and the work will be delivered in and around Bontnewydd.

This procurement is at the planning stage: Cyngor Gwynedd has announced its intention to procure the works, but this record is not an invitation to tender. The procurement is planned as one lot and is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The anticipated contract value is £2,000,000 gross, including taxes, in GBP. The buyer expects the next notice to be published on 14 September 2026. The planned contract period is from 16 November 2026 to 17 December 2027, while the construction period is anticipated to be approximately nine months. The procurement method and evaluation criteria have not been settled in the published planning information. Suppliers should treat the dates as the buyer’s current expectations rather than response deadlines.

The work is likely to suit civil engineering contractors and specialist flood defence businesses able to deliver construction in a live village environment and coordinate several linked work areas. Relevant capability includes reinforced concrete structures, earthworks and flood bund construction, repair or replacement of existing flood defences, demolition, drainage, access works and reinstatement. Experience of working near rivers and protecting communities from flood risk would be directly relevant, as would the ability to manage environmental mitigation alongside construction. The scheme may also suit smaller contractors, either as lead suppliers with suitable delivery capacity or as specialist partners in a wider team. Businesses should prepare evidence of comparable flood alleviation or water management projects, construction quality control, environmental management and safe site coordination.
