Summary of the contracting process

Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council commissioned civil engineering and groundworks to repair and improve the culvert at Goat Mill Road in Merthyr Tydfil, Wales. The requirement is for culvert rehabilitation works, including the construction-related activities needed to restore and improve this drainage structure. The procurement is categorised as works, with the relevant CPV classification 45221220 for culverts. The council is the public-sector buyer and the work is associated with its local road infrastructure. This opportunity is relevant to contractors delivering culvert repairs, drainage infrastructure, groundworks and associated civil engineering works in the Merthyr Tydfil area. It is a single requirement covering the Goat Mill Road culvert rather than a wider programme of unrelated civil engineering services.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded through a below-threshold limited competition. MATCON Civil Engineering and Groundworks Limited was selected for the single lot. The award was made on 27 August 2026, and the contract was signed the same day. The contract period runs from 28 August 2026 to 9 October 2026. Its value is £194,303 excluding VAT and £233,163 including VAT. The contract is active. The selected supplier is an SME. The procedure therefore resulted in one completed award for the Goat Mill Road culvert rehabilitation works, with evaluation conducted through a limited competition below the applicable threshold. The award covers the full requirement rather than separate suppliers delivering different lots.

This procurement demonstrates that Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council buys focused civil engineering and groundworks for local highway drainage assets, with a requirement that can be delivered by an SME. A credible future supplier would need practical experience in culvert rehabilitation, structural repairs, drainage improvement and groundworks, together with the plant, site supervision and workforce needed to complete short-duration infrastructure works safely. Relevant capability may include managing excavation, temporary works, water management, reinstatement and coordination around an operational road, where required by the specification. Contractors with evidence of comparable culvert or drainage projects, reliable delivery records and the capacity to mobilise in Merthyr Tydfil would be well placed when this buyer’s requirement returns to market.
