Summary of the contracting process

Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council procured construction works at Gwaunmeisgyn Primary School in Wales. The project covers a new additional learning needs (ALN) room and associated external work, with the stated purpose of improving the school’s facilities for pupils requiring additional learning support. The procurement is for building and construction work, classified under CPV 45000000. Delivery is in the Rhondda Cynon Taf area. The council is the buying organisation, while the appointed contractor is based in Bedwas, Caerphilly. This requirement will suit building contractors with the practical capability to deliver a school extension or adaptation alongside related external works in an occupied or operational education setting.

The procurement has been completed through a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was awarded to GKR Maintenance & Building Co Ltd. 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 £38,728.81 excluding VAT, or £46,474.57 including VAT. The appointed supplier is GKR Maintenance & Building Co Ltd, and the contract is active. Evaluation resulted in an active award for the construction works. This was a single-lot competition managed by Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council under the limited competition route.

This award demonstrates demand from Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council for small-scale education construction projects combining internal building work with external works. A credible competitor for similar requirements would need to be an established building contractor able to manage a complete school improvement project, coordinate different construction activities and deliver a new ALN room to the required specification. Experience working in or around schools would be commercially relevant, particularly where construction must be organised safely around pupils, staff and existing school operations. The successful supplier was a large maintenance and building company, indicating that the buyer valued the capacity to deliver both building maintenance-style work and new construction activity.
