Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited has completed the procurement process titled "Cost Estimating Framework - Task Order - CEF04 Package 3 - Cumming Group FY 26/27" under the industry category of project and design preparation and cost estimation. This selective procurement was conducted as a call-off from an existing framework agreement, with a focus on providing cost estimates for the NH Road Investment Strategy, enhancing the investment programme's effectiveness. The tender covered regions across the United Kingdom, including North East, North West, and London, with Cumming Group Infrastructure Limitede selected as the supplier. The contract, valued at £200,000, commenced on 1 April 2026 and is set to conclude on 31 March 2027. The award was officially published on 2 April 2026, following an award date of 25 March 2026.

This procurement provides substantial opportunities for businesses involved in cost estimation and project preparation services. Although the framework primarily suits larger corporations due to the tender's scale and the nature of the services required, businesses that specialise in providing strategic cost analysis for infrastructure projects, especially those familiar with highway investments, are well-positioned to benefit. As the contract is linked to an internal NH cost estimating framework, participating in such projects can significantly enhance a company's portfolio and industry reputation, leading to potential future engagements within the public sector.
