Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured works connected with railway maintenance or service vehicles and railway freight wagons, under the requirement titled “HRE - WFM/836 - Maldon - Woodham Ferrers - Stow Maries Halt”. The named route links Maldon, Woodham Ferrers and Stow Maries Halt. The procurement is classified as railway maintenance or service vehicles and railway freight wagons, with CPV code 34621000. Delivery coverage is stated as the United Kingdom and a range of wider locations, including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, the Isle of Man and the rest of the world. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. National Highways Limited, based in Birmingham, was the buying organisation. The work is categorised as construction or other works rather than goods or services alone.

This procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The award was made on 7 September 2026 to Hammond (ECS) Ltd for £12,787.04 including the stated GBP currency. The contract period runs from 7 September 2026 to 13 October 2026. The tender submission period ended on 7 September 2026. The procurement’s estimated value was also £12,787.04. The available outcome identifies one active award and one supplier. The process was run by National Highways Limited for works associated with railway maintenance or service vehicles and railway freight wagons. The published outcome records the supplier and the awarded value, but does not set out separate scoring weights or a qualitative evaluation basis.

For suppliers that did not win this contract, the award demonstrates a defined National Highways requirement for railway-related works involving maintenance or service vehicles and railway freight wagons. A credible competitor would need the practical capability to provide or work with this type of railway equipment and to deliver a short, focused assignment along the Maldon, Woodham Ferrers and Stow Maries Halt route. Experience of working for a major national infrastructure buyer, operating within framework call-off arrangements and mobilising work across the United Kingdom would be commercially relevant. The procurement was marked as suitable for SMEs, so a smaller specialist business with the right railway equipment, operational capacity and delivery experience could be well placed when comparable requirements return to market.
