Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured highway surface works for the A303 Wylye eastbound and westbound carriageways, between mileage points 147.8 and 152.5. The requirement is classified as surface work for highways and falls within the works category. Delivery is associated with the United Kingdom and the named A303 Wylye section. The buying organisation is National Highways Limited, based in Annesley, England. This is a road infrastructure requirement rather than a general construction or consultancy service, so it is most relevant to contractors and specialist supply chains involved in highway surfacing, carriageway renewal and related road works. The process was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, while participation was not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded on 10 July 2026 to Heidelberg Materials Ltd. The award value was £2,888,670.56 including the stated GBP currency. The contract runs from 11 July 2026 to 7 October 2026. It was a selective procedure using a call-off from a framework agreement, rather than an open competition. The requirement was handled as a single bundle covering the eastbound and westbound A303 Wylye section between mileage points 147.8 and 152.5. The recorded tender value is the same as the awarded value. The outcome is an active award, with National Highways Limited as the buyer and Heidelberg Materials Ltd as the selected supplier.

For suppliers that did not win this award, the procurement demonstrates National Highways’ demand for substantial, defined highway-surfacing packages delivered through framework call-offs. A credible future competitor would need proven capability in carriageway surface works, the plant, materials, workforce and operational controls to deliver work across both directions of a strategic A-road, and experience managing works against National Highways requirements. The scale of the package indicates that SMEs may be suitable participants, either where they can provide the required delivery capacity directly or where they can contribute a specialist part of a framework supply chain. Relevant firms should be able to evidence reliable highway delivery, quality assurance, health and safety, traffic management coordination and experience of working within tightly controlled road environments.
