Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process for the contract titled "ORT0190D - Signs and Signals" is led by National Highways, a significant UK-based infrastructure authority. The contract, classified under the industry category of road signs, involves the installation of signs and signals across various locations, including the United Kingdom, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, British Overseas Territories, Europe, and the Rest of the World. The procurement method used is selective, operating through a call-off from a framework agreement. This process recently reached the award stage on 11th September 2025, with the contract period set from 11th September 2025 to 31st March 2027. The entire contract is valued at £684,301 GBP.

This procurement presents substantial opportunities for businesses capable of supplying and managing road signage installations. Given the scope and scale of the contract, it is especially suitable for large enterprises, as indicated by the non-suitability for SMEs and VCSEs. Companies with a robust track record in infrastructure projects, particularly those familiar with the geographical locations involved, are well-positioned to benefit. The awarded supplier, Colas Limited, exemplifies the type of large-scale organisation that can fulfil such extensive contracts effectively.
