Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured highway resurfacing works under the PDF Framework for the M1 northbound and southbound carriageways between junctions 6a and 8. The requirement is classified as surface work for highways and concerns physical works rather than goods or consultancy services. Delivery was associated with the United Kingdom, with the procurement record also listing the Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Europe, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world as possible delivery areas. The named buyer is National Highways Limited, based at Stirling House in Annesley, England. The requirement is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to established road surfacing and highway maintenance contractors.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 18 July 2026 following a selective call-off from a framework agreement. Bids were due by 18 July 2026 at 12:00. Tarmac Trading Limited was awarded the contract for £1,842,883.95 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 19 July 2026 to 31 October 2026. The award is active. The requirement was treated as works and evaluated through the framework call-off route. This was not an open competition for the wider market: participation was through the relevant framework arrangements. The award identifies one supplier and one contract value.

For a supplier that did not win this award, the procurement demonstrates demand from National Highways for substantial, time-limited resurfacing on a major motorway route. A credible competitor for comparable requirements would need practical highway surfacing capability, experience delivering carriageway works safely and efficiently, and the operational capacity to mobilise resources across a defined motorway section. Framework access is commercially important because this requirement was awarded through a call-off rather than a standalone open tender. Businesses suited to the opportunity include established road construction, asphalt and highway maintenance contractors, including SMEs with the capacity, supply chain and delivery controls needed for national-road works. The successful supplier’s scale indicates the buyer expects robust delivery capability.
