The contract was awarded to Geotechnology Limited, a company based in Neath, with a start date of 15 July 2025 and completion expected by 10 October 2025, extendable to a maximum of 10 December 2025. The procurement process fell under Welsh devolved regulations and it was a direct award due to the specialised technical knowledge required and the immediacy of the environmental concerns. This falls under the services category of the industry, specifically, landfill management, with work taking place in the United Kingdom, especially in regions UKL17 and UKL18. This opportunity is significant for businesses with a strong background in environmental management and technical capacity in managing urgent waste disposal tasks. It creates a niche market opportunity for those with specific knowledge of landfill operation and the related environmental compliance standards. This type of contract is especially suitable for SMEs (Small and Medium Enterprises) that possess expertise in specialised waste management services, as there is a demand for immediate results and high precision work. Companies involved in landfill site management and emergency environmental solutions could leverage this contract as a reputation-building win, enabling them to secure further opportunities with public authorities facing similar urgent requirements. ## Notice Management of Palleg landfill site - leachate management Implementation, Transport and Disposal, Testing and Monitoring Requirements (Leachate), Grading and Testing (Soils) and Site Management. ### Procurement Information 35. This justification is where the public contract cannot be awarded on the basis of a competitive tendering procedure because the goods, services or works are strictly necessary for reasons of extreme and unavoidable urgency. The urgency is unavoidable if it is not attributable to any act or omission of the contracting authority, and could not have been foreseen by the contracting authority. 36. The concept of 'unavoidable' urgency would not apply if the contracting authority had simply not allowed sufficient time to undertake a re-procurement of a contract. It may, however, apply, for example, where contamination is unexpectedly discovered on a site the contracting authority is providing to the successful supplier as part of a procurement and this needs to be removed immediately in order to prevent delay to the overall delivery. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/039947-2025 | | Notice type | UK7 - Contract Details Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Direct | | Procurement method details | Direct award | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 15 Jul 2025 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 19 Jun 2025 | | Contract period | 14 Jul 2025 - 10 Oct 2025 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £600,000 | | Contracts value | £600,000 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NATURAL RESOURCES WALES | | Locality | CARDIFF | | Post town | Cardiff | | Postcode | CF10 3NQ | | Country | Wales | | ITL 1 | TLL Wales | | ITL 2 | TLL5 South East Wales | | ITL 3 | TLL52 Cardiff and Vale of Glamorgan | | Local authority | Cardiff | | Electoral ward | Cathays | | Westminster constituency | Cardiff South and Penarth | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | GEOTECHNOLOGY | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 90 - Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services ### Codes - 90531000 - Landfill management services ## Release History - 15 Jul 2025 at 11:53 - Award - UK7 - Contract Details Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/039947-2025 - 14 Jul 2025 at 09:27 - Award - UK6 - Contract Award Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/039495-2025 - 14 Jul 2025 at 09:27 - Award - UK6 - Contract Award Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/039494-2025 - 19 Jun 2025 at 15:58 - Award - UK5 - Transparency Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/033845-2025 ## Documents - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/039947-2025 15th July 2025 - Contract details notice on Find a Tender - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/039495-2025 14th July 2025 - Contract award notice on Find a Tender - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/039494-2025 14th July 2025 - Contract award notice on Find a Tender - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/033845-2025 19th June 2025 - Transparency notice on Find a Tender ## Notice URLs - http://naturalresourceswales.gov.uk - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
