Summary of the contracting process

Canterbury City Council procured emergency toe protection works under the title “NSW Emergency Toe Protection”. The requirement is a works contract for coastal-defence construction, intended to address the Council’s emergency toe protection needs. Delivery is in the Canterbury area of the United Kingdom. The Council is the buying organisation and sought a suitable supplier to undertake the works. The procurement relates to one completed requirement, rather than separate service or goods packages. It will interest contractors specialising in coastal engineering, shoreline protection, marine infrastructure, civil engineering or related construction works, particularly those able to deliver physical coastal-defence interventions for a local authority.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Canterbury City Council selected OVENDEN ALLWORKS LIMITED. The award was made on 15 July 2026, with a gross value of £97,872.62 including tax and a net value of £81,560.52. The contract was signed on 24 July 2026 and runs from 25 July 2026 to 21 August 2026. It was a below-threshold procedure using a procurement method recorded as unknown, with evaluation details governed by the tender requirements. The award and contract cover the single completed requirement for coastal-defence works. The contract is active and the awarded supplier is an SME.

This award demonstrates a local authority requirement for specialist coastal-defence works addressing emergency toe protection. Competitors seeking similar work with Canterbury City Council would need credible capability in coastal engineering, shoreline protection or civil construction, together with the practical resources to undertake physical works in a coastal environment. The short delivery window indicates the importance of rapid mobilisation, effective site management and the ability to complete defined protection works promptly. Experience delivering comparable coastal or marine infrastructure projects for public-sector or other demanding clients would strengthen a supplier’s position. The successful supplier’s SME status also shows that this scale of coastal works can be delivered by a smaller specialist contractor.
