Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured highway surface works under the PDF Framework for M6 southbound at Gravelly Hill and Bromford. The requirement covers pavement and joint works, intended to maintain or improve the highway surface. It is classified as surface work for highways and falls within the works category. The stated delivery coverage includes the United Kingdom, as well as the Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Europe, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world. The named buyer is National Highways Limited, based in Annesley, England. The requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The selected supplier was Heidelberg Materials, a large organisation. The opportunity therefore concerns specialist road-surface construction and repair work for a major strategic road operator, rather than general building or routine facilities services.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. Bids had to be submitted by 13 May 2026 at 12:00. National Highways Limited awarded the contract to Heidelberg Materials on 13 May 2026 for £1,647,739.02 including the stated GBP currency. The awarded contract period runs from 14 May 2026 to 24 November 2026. The published award is active and the tender is complete. The available evaluation information identifies the framework call-off route, but does not set out separate quality, price or technical weightings. This is a single requirement covering the M6 southbound Gravelly Hill and Bromford pavement and joints works, with no separate lot awards reported.

For competitors, this award confirms demand from National Highways for substantial, defined highway pavement and joint works on the M6 southbound network. A credible future supplier would need the operational capability to deliver road-surface construction or repair works in a live strategic-highway environment, with sufficient workforce, plant, materials and project management to handle a sizeable delivery package. Experience of pavement and joint treatment, traffic-sensitive motorway working and coordination with a major highways client would strengthen a supplier’s position. The route to market is a framework call-off, so relevant businesses should understand and monitor the applicable framework arrangements rather than rely only on open tender opportunities. The buyer’s stated SME suitability also indicates that capable smaller firms may be relevant, either as framework suppliers or through delivery partnerships, provided they can demonstrate the required highway delivery capacity.
