Summary of the contracting process

Blaenau Gwent County Borough Council commissioned replacement of a damaged culvert at Alma Street. This is civil engineering work focused on culvert replacement, rather than a broader maintenance or construction programme. The contract covers one lot and the recorded delivery location is Blaenau Gwent, Wales. The council is the buyer, and Horan Construction Ltd is the selected supplier. The stated purpose is to replace the damaged culvert; no further technical scope is described in the procurement information. The work is categorised as construction works, specifically culvert work (CPV 45221220).

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Horan Construction Ltd. Blaenau Gwent County Borough Council used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 30 August 2026 and runs from 14 September to 31 October 2026. Its stated value is £54,759.90 excluding VAT (£65,711.88 including VAT). The procurement was structured as a single lot. The available award information identifies the successful supplier and the culvert replacement work, but gives no evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements. The award is recorded as active, and the contract is also recorded as active.

This award demonstrates demand from Blaenau Gwent County Borough Council for targeted civil engineering work to replace damaged culverts. Suppliers seeking comparable work from this buyer would need to deliver culvert replacement in Blaenau Gwent and be credible in a limited-competition procurement route. The awarded supplier was a large construction company, indicating that the council selected an established contractor for this requirement; however, the procurement information does not state specific accreditations, technical qualifications, staffing levels or experience thresholds. The single-lot structure shows this requirement was packaged as one discrete works contract. Firms with relevant culvert and infrastructure construction capability, and the capacity to complete a focused project to a short programme, are the closest match to the demonstrated demand.
