Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited commissioned works for the Westwood Road bridge on the Buildwas to Marsh Farm route near Craven Arms. The requirement is identified as bridge work, although the description does not set out the specific tasks or technical scope. The buying organisation is National Highways Limited, based in Birmingham. The named route and bridge identify the location of the works; the delivery address data does not provide a more precise site location. This is a highways infrastructure requirement rather than a purchase of railway vehicles, despite the unrelated classification attached to the process. The opportunity is relevant to civil engineering and bridge contractors with experience delivering works on transport infrastructure for a national highways authority.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Dyer & Butler. The award was made on 16 October 2026 for £24,093.87. The contract period runs from 21 October 2026 to 3 February 2027. The estimated tender value is also £24,093.87. National Highways used a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 21 October 2026. The process is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and unsuitable for voluntary, community and social enterprises. No lot structure or evaluation criteria are recorded in the procurement details, so the award outcome establishes the selected supplier but does not explain how bids were assessed.

For contractors that did not win, this award is evidence that National Highways buys discrete bridge works on the Buildwas to Marsh Farm route near Craven Arms through framework call-offs. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need the civil engineering capability to undertake bridge works safely and effectively within a defined transport-infrastructure project. The selected supplier, Dyer & Butler, is recorded as a large business, while the procurement was also marked as suitable for SMEs, indicating that smaller firms were considered suitable to participate. Businesses should therefore assess whether their bridge and highways experience, delivery capacity and ability to work within a framework call-off can match this buyer’s requirement. The specific technical activities and qualifications required cannot be inferred from the available description.
