Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited commissioned pre-construction support for its Aston and Dartford Traffic Officer Outstation schemes. The work covers essential surveys, design development and early-stage technical assessments, to move both schemes towards a deliverable construction stage with costs established. The requirement is for professional pre-construction and technical services supporting office and depot-related building schemes, rather than construction delivery itself. The two outstation schemes are in Aston and Dartford, in the West Midlands and South East of England respectively.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Integra Buildings Limited on 7 October 2026. The award value is £168,392.92. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 27 April 2027. The requirement was procured through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The original tender deadline was 31 August 2026. The procurement was categorised as services, with the work covering both outstation schemes; no separate lot awards are reported. The stated purpose of the pre-construction contract was to develop the surveys, design and technical assessments needed to progress the schemes towards construction with costs established.

For suppliers considering similar future work for National Highways, this award shows demand for pre-construction expertise that can support multiple highway traffic officer outstation schemes. Credible competitors would need to deliver essential surveys, design development and early technical assessments, and integrate these into a coordinated route towards construction-ready proposals with costs established. The requirement was handled as a framework call-off, so relevant framework access and the ability to compete through that route would matter. The award went to a large supplier, and the procurement marked the opportunity as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises; businesses should therefore assess whether they have the breadth and delivery capacity expected for a multi-site commission.
