UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council commissioned works to refurbish the cookery classroom at Ty Gwyn School. The requirement is construction work associated with the school’s cookery teaching space, covering the 2026 refurbishment project. The work is for a public-sector education setting and is delivered at Ty Gwyn School within the council’s area. The buying organisation is Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council, based in Pontypridd. This is a single refurbishment requirement rather than a multi-site programme or a supply of standalone goods. Businesses relevant to this opportunity are construction and building-refurbishment contractors with experience working in school premises and delivering completed classroom environments for public-sector clients.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 15 July 2026 and awarded to CARDO (WALES & WEST) LIMITED. The awarded contract value is £113,366.40 excluding VAT, or £136,039.68 including VAT. The contract runs from 16 July 2026 to 23 October 2026. It covers one completed lot, classified as construction work. The contract is active, while the tender itself is recorded as complete. The published procurement data does not set out separate scoring weightings or detailed award criteria. This outcome shows that the council used a restricted, below-threshold route rather than an open competition for the school refurbishment.

For a supplier that did not win, this award is useful evidence that Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council purchases specialist refurbishment works for individual school facilities through below-threshold limited competitions. A credible competitor for comparable requirements would need to deliver construction work in an occupied or operational education environment, manage a self-contained classroom refurbishment, and demonstrate the organisation, site management and health-and-safety controls expected on public-sector school projects. The successful supplier was a large construction business, indicating that the buyer accepted a contractor with the capacity to manage the full requirement rather than a narrow trade-only package. Relevant firms should therefore be able to provide an end-to-end refurbishment service and work directly with the council on school premises.
