Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured highway surface works under the project titled “PDF Framework - M6 SB Ray Lane to Old Lane”. The requirement concerns work on the southbound M6 between Ray Lane and Old Lane, involving surface work for highways. It is classified as works rather than goods or services. The stated delivery coverage includes the United Kingdom, as well as the Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Europe, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world. In practical terms, the opportunity is relevant to contractors delivering highway surfacing and associated carriageway surface works for National Highways. The procurement was structured as a framework call-off, indicating a defined requirement being placed through an existing framework arrangement.

This procurement has been awarded following a selective procedure using a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 10 April 2026 at 12:00. National Highways Limited awarded the contract to Tarmac Trading Limited on 10 April 2026. The awarded value is £697,232.18. The contract period runs from 11 April 2026 to 29 May 2026. The tender is recorded as complete and the award is active. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award information records one supplier and one awarded requirement. The available details establish the route, procedure, value, award outcome and delivery period, but do not set out a separate scored evaluation breakdown.

For a supplier that did not win this requirement, the award demonstrates demand from National Highways for specialist highway surface works on a major motorway route, delivered through framework call-offs. A credible future competitor would need practical capability in highway surfacing, the workforce and plant to operate safely on a strategic motorway, and experience managing short, location-specific carriageway works. Suppliers should also be able to work within National Highways’ operational, safety and quality requirements and respond effectively through an established framework route. The stated SME suitability indicates that smaller contractors with suitable highway delivery capacity may be relevant, either independently or through a framework position and appropriate delivery partnerships. Experience delivering comparable motorway surface work would strengthen future competitiveness.
