Summary of the contracting process

Carmarthenshire County Council commissioned electrical installation and remedial works at Burry Port Harbour. The requirement covers electrical installation work, electrical services, and the repair and maintenance of electrical machinery, apparatus and associated equipment. It is a works contract focused on maintaining and improving electrical infrastructure at the harbour, rather than the supply of standalone equipment. The contracting authority is Carmarthenshire County Council, based in Carmarthen, and the delivery location is Burry Port Harbour in Carmarthenshire. The procurement was arranged as a single lot. The appointed supplier, IWEC International Ltd, is based in Kidwelly, placing the work within the local Carmarthenshire area. Businesses with practical electrical contracting capability and experience of remedial work in operational public or marine environments would find the requirement most relevant.

The procurement has been completed and the contract is active. Carmarthenshire County Council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. IWEC International Ltd was awarded the single lot. The contract was signed on 27 August 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 December 2027. Its value is £150,000 excluding VAT, or £180,000 including VAT. The published award describes the scope as electrical installation and remedial works at Burry Port Harbour, including related electrical services and repair and maintenance. The award is recorded as active and the contract as active. The available outcome shows one appointed supplier and one contract, with no competitive tender or separate lot awards involved. The evaluation basis was therefore the authority’s direct-award decision rather than a scored competition.

For a supplier that did not secure this contract, the award provides a clear example of the council’s demand for practical electrical works at a harbour facility. A credible future competitor would need to deliver electrical installation, fault finding and remedial work, together with repair and maintenance of associated electrical machinery and equipment. The requirement points towards a contractor able to manage varied site tasks rather than a business focused only on new installations or product supply. Relevant strengths would include competent site operatives, safe working in an operational harbour environment, dependable response to defects, and the ability to carry out planned and corrective work through one service. The appointed supplier is an SME, showing that this scale and type of council works can suit a focused specialist contractor with local delivery capacity.
