Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured highway surface works under its Rapid Response tranche of the SDF framework. The requirement is classified as surface work for highways (CPV 45233210). The procurement data describes one work item, without further detail on the specific roads, treatment or quantities. Delivery locations are listed as the United Kingdom, Europe, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world; no individual sites are identified. The buyer is National Highways Limited, based in Annesley, England. This is a works requirement for suppliers able to undertake highway surfacing as part of a rapid-response framework call-off.

The procurement is complete and a contract has been awarded to Associated Asphalt Contracting Limited. The award date was 1 September 2026. The awarded value is £2,276,094.55. The contract period runs from 2 September 2026 to 31 March 2027. The buyer used a selective procedure and made a call-off from a framework agreement. The competition closed on 1 September 2026 at 12:00. The procurement was marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The record describes a single work item and a single supplier award; no lot-level split or detailed evaluation criteria are reported.

This award shows that National Highways buys rapid-response highway surfacing through a call-off from its framework, rather than describing a standalone open competition. A future competitor would need to be capable of delivering highway surface works responsively across the buyer’s stated delivery scope, and of competing through the relevant framework route. The recorded supplier is a large contractor, while the procurement was also marked suitable for SMEs, indicating that smaller firms may be relevant to this type of requirement. Highway surfacing businesses with the operational capacity to mobilise for response work and undertake works for a national highways buyer are best aligned. The procurement gives no specific technical standards, accreditations, staffing levels or experience thresholds to use as further qualification benchmarks.
