The Provincial Council disqualifies Construcciones J.Mauri for three months over the Rois bid

The Provincial Council of A Coruña has declared a prohibition on the company Construcciones J.Mauri e Hijos, S.L. from contracting with the provincial institution for a period of three months. The measure, adopted by the Presidency through resolution 45158/2026 of October 21, 2026, is made public in the Official Gazette of the Province of A Coruña (BOP) number 210, corresponding to November 3, 2026, within the extract of resolutions from the Presidency of the provincial body.

The decision appears in the Local Administration section, under the heading of the General Secretariat. Section of Information and Corporate Activity, in the extract collecting the resolutions issued between September 28 and October 25, 2026 (announcement number 2026/7046). The text justifies the prohibition “as a consequence of the undue withdrawal of the bid” that the company had submitted in a provincial works tender.

The prohibition is limited to contracting with the Provincial Council of A Coruña and does not extend to other administrations. Prohibitions on contracting are regulated in article 71 of Law 9/2017, of November 8, on Public Sector Contracts, a provision that the provincial gazette itself invokes in the responsible declaration forms of its tenders.

The Rois project that originated the file

The origin of the agreement lies in the tender for the works of project DP 7402 Martelo to Aguasantas, expansion and improvement from kilometer point 0+000 to 2+543, in the municipality of Rois, with work code 2022.1110.0009.0 and file code PCO.001.2025.00145. Resolution 45158/2026 limits the case to this single road works contract.

According to the published extract, the company withdrew the bid it had submitted for that tender, conduct which the Council qualifies as undue. The withdrawal forced the reorganization of the procedure and the request for documentation from another of the competing entities.

Five steps of a four-month file

The processing is documented in the provincial gazette itself, which published each of the Presidency’s resolutions:

• August 24, 2026: resolution 37118/2026, by which it is considered that Construcciones J.Mauri e Hijos, S.L. unduly withdrew its bid and documentation is requested from the entity Nemesio Ordoñez, S.A.
• August 31, 2026: resolution 38340/2026, requesting the award of the execution contract for the works of DP 7402.
• September 10, 2026: resolution 39349/2026, which approves the start of the disqualification proceedings for the company for the same reason.
• September 23, 2026: resolution 40979/2026, which approves the award of the execution contract for the works of DP 7402 Martelo to Aguasantas.
• October 21, 2026: resolution 45158/2026, which declares the prohibition to contract and is now published.

A habitual awardee of the Council

The company appears as the awardee of other contracts from the provincial body. In the list of contracts formalized in July 2026, published in the BOP on September 22, 2026, it appears with two lots for the conditioning and conservation of provincial roads:

• Group 15 (Boqueixón, O Pino and Touro), file PCO.001.2026.00360: budget of 429,445.30 euros, awarded for 400,243.03 euros, approved on 07/15/2026 and formalized on 07/30/2026.
• Group 8 (As Pontes, Irixoa, Monfero and Vilarmaior), file PCO.001.2026.00345: budget of 272,614.73 euros, awarded for 255,794.40 euros, with the same approval and formalization dates.

The company’s activity is not limited to the provincial scope. The council of Oza-Cesuras published in the BOP on September 2, 2026, the procedure for the cancellation of the definitive guarantee for the work “Improvement of the road surface from O Castelo to Lauseira and branch to Espiñeira”, included in the POS+2024, requested by the contractor itself, with a fifteen-day period to present claims.

The disqualification directly affects the Deputación’s contracting calendar at a time when the company maintains a relevant presence in the provincial road conservation groups. The publication in the official bulletin makes the decision public and enforceable against third parties, such that any bidder can verify the company’s status in the procedures convened by the provincial institution during the three-month duration of the measure.
