Summary of the contracting process

Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council commissioned flood-defence construction at Willowford House. The work is classified as flood-prevention works and is delivered in Rhondda Cynon Taf, Wales. The requirement concerns construction of flood defences at the named property; no further scope is described. This is a single-lot construction project rather than a broader maintenance or service contract. It is relevant to contractors whose work includes building flood-protection measures and who can undertake a site-specific project for a Welsh local authority. The buyer is Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to GKR Maintenance & Building Co Ltd. The council used a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition. The award is recorded as active, and the contract is also active. The contract was signed on 21 September 2026 and runs from 21 September to 31 October 2026. Its stated value is £70,833.34 excluding VAT, or £85,000 including VAT. The procurement comprised one lot, covering the flood-defence works at Willowford House. No award evaluation criteria are recorded, consistent with the route used. The award was made under the applicable Welsh public procurement legislation.

The award shows that Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council buys site-specific flood-defence construction through a direct, below-threshold route as well as through competitive procurement. A future supplier would need credible construction capability in flood prevention and the practical ability to deliver work at an individual property or site. The awarded company is identified as a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that this project was delivered by an SME; this does not establish a formal size restriction for future work. Relevant experience would include building flood defences and coordinating delivery for a local authority. The short, focused scope suggests a contractor able to mobilise for a defined construction package, rather than a supplier offering only general consultancy or routine maintenance.
