Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured railway maintenance works associated with the route from Rocks Ferry Junction through Birkenhead Woodside to Woodside Tunnel. The requirement is classified as railway maintenance or service vehicles and railway freight wagons (CPV 34621000), indicating work connected with rail infrastructure or the vehicles used to maintain or support it. The named procurement covers activity along this specific Merseyside route, while the delivery locations also include the United Kingdom and a wide range of other territories. It is categorised as works rather than goods or services. The buying organisation is National Highways Limited, based in Birmingham. The requirement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and was not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises.

This procurement has been completed and awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. Amco Giffen was awarded the contract by National Highways Limited on 8 September 2026. The awarded value is £11,497.87. The contract runs from 8 September 2026 to 9 October 2026. The tender submission deadline was 8 September 2026. The procurement used a framework call-off route rather than an open competition, and the available outcome identifies one successful supplier for the requirement. The award is active. The published information identifies the procurement as a single requirement, with no separate lots described. The evaluation basis is not set out in the available procurement information.

This award shows National Highways’ demand for short-duration railway maintenance work linked to a defined route and for suppliers able to provide or support railway maintenance and service vehicles. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need practical capability in rail-related works, familiarity with the operational demands of railway infrastructure and the capacity to deliver a focused assignment through a framework call-off. The opportunity’s SME suitability indicates that smaller specialist firms can be relevant where they have the necessary technical resources and delivery capacity. Suppliers should also be able to work to National Highways’ requirements and demonstrate that their rail maintenance capability is appropriate to work around junctions, urban rail facilities and tunnels.
