Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured highway surface works for the A31 between Roundhouse and Lake Gates. The requirement is identified as surface work for highways (CPV 45233210), placing it in the road surfacing and highway maintenance market. The procurement record names the route section but does not provide a more detailed breakdown of the work or a specific delivery locality. National Highways is the buying organisation. The opportunity was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and was classified as works. The procurement formed part of a framework call-off, showing demand for a defined highway works package rather than a general service contract. Suppliers whose business includes road surfacing and related highway works are the closest fit to the stated requirement.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. National Highways selected Associated Asphalt Contracting Ltd through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The award was made on 24 September 2026, following a response deadline of 24 September 2026 at 12:00. The awarded value was £35,009.21. The contract period runs from 25 September 2026 to 4 January 2027. This was a single stated works requirement for the A31 Roundhouse to Lake Gates section; no separate lot awards are recorded. The published outcome identifies the successful supplier and award value, but provides no stated evaluation criteria or supplier eligibility requirements beyond the recorded suitability for SMEs.

For a supplier that did not win, this award is evidence that National Highways buys discrete road-surfacing and highway works packages through call-offs from a framework. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need practical capability to deliver highway surface works on a defined route section, with the operational capacity to complete a short, focused package within the contract period. The successful supplier, Associated Asphalt Contracting Ltd, is an asphalt contracting business, indicating that directly relevant surfacing expertise is aligned with this requirement. The procurement was marked as suitable for SMEs, so this type of package may fit businesses able to undertake highway works at a modest scale. The award does not set out specific accreditations, technical standards or evaluation weightings, so those should not be assumed from this procurement.
