Summary of the contracting process

Balfour Beatty Civil Engineering Limited is procuring highway and road construction works for the A66 access and haul roads. The scope covers stripping topsoil, clearing residual vegetation and placing the material in storage areas. The supplier or subcontractor must manage the topsoil stockpiles throughout the works, including spraying and other treatment needed to preserve the material for reuse. Site clearance includes removing walls and setting them aside for reuse, and removing and disposing of fences, gates, kerbs, drainage, signposts and tree root systems. The works also include hard digging and disposal of arisings. Delivery is at the site identified by postcode CA10 1SS. This is a works contract for a highway construction project, classified under CPV 45233100.

The process reached tender: the buyer invited offers through a selective competitive procedure with negotiation, described as above threshold. Bids were due by 5 August 2026 at 5:00pm. The contract is scheduled to run from 30 November 2026 to 29 November 2029, a three-year term. Its estimated value is £100,000 including the stated currency of GBP. The requirement is presented as a single package rather than separate lots. The procurement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The tender covers earthworks, topsoil handling, site clearance, removal and disposal activities required to prepare access and haul roads. Suppliers should review the procurement requirements and negotiation arrangements when preparing an offer.

This opportunity suits civil engineering, highways and groundworks contractors able to deliver several site-preparation activities as one coordinated package. Relevant capability includes topsoil stripping and stockpile management, vegetation clearance, earthworks and hard digging, together with the safe removal, segregation, reuse and disposal of materials. Experience with highway or access-road construction would be particularly relevant, as the work combines land clearance, drainage and kerb removal, boundary and sign removal, and management of tree-root systems. Contractors will need sufficient plant, labour and site-management capacity to maintain stockpiles and complete clearance works over the contract period. The procurement is marked as suitable for SMEs, so established smaller civil engineering businesses and specialist subcontractors with the required earthworks and clearance capability may be well placed to compete.
