Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited commissioned highway works on the A66 between Elton Interchange and Yarm Road Interchange. The requirement covers vehicle restraint systems and highway signs, within the broader category of surface work for highways (CPV 45233210). The work is associated with the United Kingdom, and the named route identifies the principal delivery area. This is a roads infrastructure requirement rather than a general construction or maintenance package: relevant expertise is in installing, renewing or improving roadside safety barriers, vehicle restraint equipment and traffic signs on a strategic highway. Businesses operating in highway construction, road safety systems, traffic-sign installation or related civil engineering may therefore find the scope relevant, particularly where they can work safely on major-road infrastructure and meet National Highways’ operational requirements.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective call-off from a framework agreement, rather than an open standalone tender. The tender deadline was 27 July 2026 at 12:00. National Highways Limited awarded the contract to DSD Construction Ltd on 27 July 2026 for £77,385.78 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 28 July 2026 to 31 March 2027. The procurement is classified as works and was marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is active. The available process information identifies the call-off route and the successful supplier, but does not set out an award scoring breakdown or separate lots. There is one recorded award and one supplier.

This award provides a clear benchmark for suppliers seeking comparable National Highways work: the buyer uses framework call-offs for defined highway safety and signing packages, and the requirement can be delivered by an SME. A credible competitor would need practical capability in vehicle restraint systems, highway signs and associated surface or civil engineering works, with the capacity to operate on a strategic route and coordinate safely within a live highways environment. Experience of National Highways standards, traffic management, temporary works, site safety, quality control and compliant installation would strengthen a future offering. Firms already on relevant frameworks, or able to join and perform through framework arrangements, are particularly well placed. Specialist subcontractors may also support larger highway contractors where the package is delivered within a broader route programme.
