Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured highway works on the A47, covering the eastbound carriageway between junctions 17 and 20 and the Eye Green section, together with drainage works on the westbound carriageway between junctions 18 and 19. The requirement is primarily highway surface work, with associated road drainage activity. The work falls within the construction category and is identified under CPV 45233210, Surface work for highways. Delivery locations are stated across the United Kingdom, with the named route sections providing the clearest operational focus. The procurement was intended for an SME supplier, while voluntary, community and social enterprises were not identified as suitable. National Highways Limited was the buying organisation.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. National Highways Limited used a selective call-off from a framework agreement. FM Conway Ltd was awarded the contract on 6 July 2026 for £4,005,162.58 including the stated GBP currency. The contract period runs from 7 July 2026 to 30 September 2026. The tender submission deadline was 6 July 2026 at 12:00. The requirement was classified as works, with the award made through the framework call-off route. The awarded supplier is FM Conway Ltd. The award is active, and the procurement value recorded for the tender is also £4,005,162.58. The contracting process therefore records a completed selection for the A47 highway and drainage package.

This award provides a clear benchmark for firms targeting National Highways work involving carriageway resurfacing and highway drainage on major routes. A credible future competitor would need practical capability in highway surface construction, road maintenance and drainage delivery, together with the resources to coordinate works across multiple A47 sections. Experience of working under a framework call-off would be commercially relevant, as would the ability to mobilise quickly, manage short delivery windows and maintain safe operations on or alongside live strategic roads. The requirement was considered suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so specialist SMEs with the necessary workforce, plant, supply-chain capacity and demonstrable highway delivery record could be well placed when comparable requirements return to this buyer.
