Summary of the contracting process

Newport City Council procured permanent spectator barriers at Bettws Lane Playing Fields in Newport. The works covered the supply and installation of barriers around two full-sized football pitches, providing a safe and durable perimeter solution compliant with Gwent Football Association requirements and established Gwent FA barrier expectations. This is primarily a fencing and barrier installation project, with associated goods supply. The delivery site is Bettws Lane Playing Fields, Newport. The council is the public-sector buyer and the requirement was structured as a single lot. The opportunity is relevant to contractors specialising in sports-ground fencing, spectator safety barriers, perimeter protection, fabrication, or installation work, particularly those able to deliver compliant systems for football facilities.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold direct award without competition. Newport City Council selected Kingsley Build Group, an SME. The award date was 24 August 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The awarded and contracted value is £41,660 excluding VAT, or £49,992 including VAT. The contract period runs from 25 August 2026 to 26 August 2026. The work was evaluated and awarded as a direct purchase rather than through a competitive tender. The contract is active, while the tender itself is complete. One supplier was awarded the single lot covering the full spectator-barrier installation requirement.

This award shows that Newport City Council buys specialist sports-facility barrier works through a direct, below-threshold route and that an SME can deliver the requirement. A credible future competitor would need practical experience supplying and installing permanent spectator barriers around full-sized football pitches, with the workforce, equipment and project management capacity to complete a short installation programme. Evidence of durable construction, safe public-facing installations and compliance with Gwent FA expectations would be important. Relevant suppliers include sports-ground contractors, fencing specialists, barrier manufacturers with installation teams and building firms able to manage both goods supply and site works. Local delivery capability may also help, given the Newport location and the need to work efficiently at a live playing-fields site.
