Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured highway surface works on the M5 between junctions 24 and 25, including the junction 24 exit and entry slips. The requirement covers the southbound carriageway between mileposts 195.0 and 203.0. It is a works contract concerned with maintaining, repairing or improving highway surfaces on this motorway section. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. The named buying organisation is National Highways Limited, which manages and operates strategic road infrastructure. The scope is focused on road-surface works rather than general construction, consultancy or routine facilities services, so it is most relevant to contractors with direct experience of delivering highway surfacing and associated carriageway works in a live strategic-road environment.

This procurement has been completed and awarded. National Highways Limited used a selective call-off from a framework agreement. FM Conway Ltd was awarded the contract on 21 May 2026 for £3,341,673.07 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 22 May 2026 to 4 August 2026. The tender submission deadline was 21 May 2026 at 12:00. The procurement was evaluated as highway surface works, with the requirement classified under CPV 45233210. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. There was one recorded award, and the award status is active.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates demand from National Highways for substantial, tightly defined motorway surface works delivered through a framework call-off. A credible future competitor would need practical capability in highway surfacing and carriageway construction, together with the workforce, plant, traffic-management arrangements and operational control needed to work safely on a strategic motorway section and its entry and exit slips. Experience coordinating works across junctions, carriageways and specified motorway mileposts would be directly relevant. The requirement was marked as suitable for SMEs, so an established specialist contractor with sufficient delivery capacity may be well placed, either independently or as part of an appropriately managed delivery team.
