Summary of the contracting process

Newport City Council procured specialist road-resurfacing works for the northern section of Malpas Road in Newport. The work supports the structural inlay of pavement layers and requires ironwork adjustments and reinstatement, with a rapid turnaround to achieve a regular, durable road surface. The scope is focused on carriageway resurfacing and associated road repairs. Delivery is in Newport, Wales. This is a single works requirement rather than a multi-lot programme.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Rhino Asphalt Solutions. The council used a direct award below the procurement threshold, without competition. The award was made on 5 October 2026, at a gross value of £69,600 (£58,000 excluding VAT). The contract period runs from 6 October to 23 October 2026. There was one lot, marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The process data does not set out a comparative evaluation basis; the stated route was a non-competitive direct award.

This award shows demand from Newport City Council for specialist highway surfacing support tied to pavement-layer inlay, particularly ironwork adjustment and reinstatement delivered at speed while protecting surface regularity and durability. Suppliers seeking to compete for a similar requirement would need practical carriageway resurfacing and road-repair capability, including the ability to coordinate ironwork with resurfacing operations and mobilise quickly for a short, focused job. The single-lot structure and SME suitability indicate that this scale of work can be relevant to smaller specialist contractors, not only large infrastructure firms. The award went to Rhino Asphalt Solutions, demonstrating that a specialist asphalt supplier was selected for this requirement. The procurement used a direct award without competition, so the outcome does not establish a scored evaluation model.
