Summary of the contracting process

Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council procured a new hot box for its highways plant. The equipment is intended to store hot macadam, supporting the council’s highway maintenance operations. This is a goods requirement for civil engineering machinery (CPV 43310000), delivered for the council’s activities in Wales. The buying organisation is Rhondda Cynon Taf CBC, a sub-central public authority based in Pontypridd. The requirement is focused on the supply of equipment rather than construction, road surfacing or general plant hire. Businesses relevant to this opportunity are manufacturers, distributors and specialist suppliers of hot boxes or comparable equipment for highways and civil engineering use.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Marvtech. It used a direct award below threshold without competition, covering one lot. The contract was signed on 4 March 2026 and ran from 5 March 2026 to 4 August 2026. Its value was £36,000 excluding VAT, or £43,200 including VAT. The contract is recorded as active. The published award identifies Marvtech as the successful supplier, and the contract covers the supply of hot box equipment for the council’s highways plant. The process was therefore concluded through a non-competitive below-threshold route rather than an open tender, with the recorded outcome applying to the single equipment requirement.

For suppliers that did not win this procurement, the award provides a clear example of demand from Rhondda Cynon Taf CBC for specialist highways equipment. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to supply hot box equipment suitable for storing hot macadam and for use within a local-authority highways plant environment. Relevant experience in civil engineering machinery, highways maintenance equipment and the practical requirements of public-sector plant operations would strengthen a supplier’s position. Businesses should also be able to demonstrate reliable equipment supply, delivery capability in Wales and the capacity to support a council-level requirement, rather than offering general construction machinery unrelated to hot macadam storage.
