Summary of the contracting process

Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council procured construction works to replace the curtain walling at YG Rhydywaun. The requirement is identified as “YG Rhydywaun – Curtain Wall Replacement 2026” and covers work at the school site in the Rhondda Cynon Taf area. This is a building and construction opportunity rather than a supply-only contract or professional consultancy. The buying organisation is a Welsh local authority, based in Pontypridd, and the requirement falls within the construction work category. The award covers one complete requirement, with the works associated with the identified YG Rhydywaun site rather than a wider multi-site programme.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. GKR Maintenance & Building Co Ltd was selected for the single requirement. The award was made on 16 July 2026, and the contract was signed on 16 July 2026. The contract runs from 17 July 2026 to 30 October 2026. Its value is £265,081.56 excluding VAT, or £318,097.87 including VAT. The resulting contract is active. The process used a limited procurement method under the applicable Welsh public procurement regulations. The published outcome records one active award and one active contract for the curtain wall replacement works.

This procurement demonstrates established demand from Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council for substantial, time-limited building envelope works at an education site. A credible future competitor would need practical experience in curtain wall replacement and related construction work, together with the workforce, site management and delivery capacity to complete a school refurbishment safely within a defined programme. The awarded supplier is a large construction and maintenance business, indicating that the requirement was suited to an organisation able to manage a contract of this scale rather than a small reactive repair. Firms with relevant school, public-sector or occupied-site experience, strong health and safety controls, and the ability to deliver specialist façade works would be well placed when a similar requirement returns.
