The machines are also used for other activities including ditching and as back-up for the Council’s winter maintenance activities between October and March. Due to the locations in which the Machines operate, the size of the Machine was an important consideration; many sections of the highway are not accompanied by a traffic control team when verge cutting.\nDue to budgetary constraints, the number of rear flail mowers purchased was reduced from three to two.\nThe Council made an award of contract to the most advantageous bidder, RVW Pugh Ltd, in the notice ocds-h6vhtk-058c1d published 17th December 2025. Award of contract was confirmed on 12th January 2026 following conclusion of the standstill period." } ], "status": [ { "releaseID": "050523-2025", "releaseDate": "2025-08-21T12:53:53+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "active" }, { "releaseID": "083903-2025", "releaseDate": "2025-12-17T14:22:40Z", "releaseTag": [ "award", "contract" ], "value": "complete" } ], "items": [ { "id": "1", "additionalClassifications": [ { "releaseID": "050523-2025", "releaseDate": "2025-08-21T12:53:53+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": [ { "scheme": "CPV", "id": "16000000", "description": "Agricultural machinery" } ] } ], "deliveryAddresses": [ { "region": [ { "releaseID": "050523-2025", "releaseDate": "2025-08-21T12:53:53+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "UKL24" } ], "country": [ { "releaseID": "050523-2025", "releaseDate": "2025-08-21T12:53:53+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "GB" } ], "countryName": [ { "releaseID": "050523-2025", "releaseDate": "2025-08-21T12:53:53+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "United Kingdom" } ] } ], "relatedLot": [ { "releaseID": "050523-2025", "releaseDate": "2025-08-21T12:53:53+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "1" } ] } ], "value": { "amountGross": [ { "releaseID": "050523-2025", "releaseDate": "2025-08-21T12:53:53+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": 432000 } ], "amount": [ { "releaseID": "050523-2025", "releaseDate": "2025-08-21T12:53:53+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": 360000 } ], "currency": [ { "releaseID": "050523-2025", "releaseDate": "2025-08-21T12:53:53+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "GBP" } ] }, "procurementMethod": [ { "releaseID": "050523-2025", "releaseDate": "2025-08-21T12:53:53+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "open" } ], "procurementMethodDetails": [ { "releaseID": "050523-2025", "releaseDate": "2025-08-21T12:53:53+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "Open procedure" } ], "mainProcurementCategory": [ { "releaseID": "050523-2025", "releaseDate": "2025-08-21T12:53:53+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "goods" } ], "aboveThreshold": [ { "releaseID": "050523-2025", "releaseDate": "2025-08-21T12:53:53+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": true } ], "coveredBy": [ { "releaseID": "050523-2025", "releaseDate": "2025-08-21T12:53:53+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": [ "GPA", "CPTPP" ] }, { "releaseID": "102137-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-10-28T14:13:12Z", "releaseTag": [ "award", "contract" ], "value": [ "GPA" ] } ], "submissionMethodDetails": [ { "releaseID": "050523-2025", "releaseDate": "2025-08-21T12:53:53+01:00", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "Instructions for Suppliers – Registration on eTenderwales\nPowys County Council will be conducting this tender through the Value Wales e-Tendering portal.
