Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured highway surface works under the PDF Framework for the A45 between Thrapston and Rands roundabout. The requirement is categorised as works and concerns surface work for highways, covering activity on the A45 route. It was bought as a framework call-off rather than as a standalone open-market contract. The named buying organisation is National Highways Limited, based in England. The procurement is relevant to contractors delivering highway surfacing, carriageway maintenance or associated road-surface works, particularly businesses operating on major-road infrastructure. The stated delivery geography includes the United Kingdom, with the route title identifying the specific A45 section between Thrapston and Rands roundabout.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. Galliford Try was awarded the contract on 6 August 2026 for £1,235,694.76 including the stated GBP currency. The contract period runs from 7 August 2026 to 16 November 2026. The tender submission deadline was 6 August 2026 at 12:00. The award is recorded as active. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and the procurement was for works. This outcome records the selected supplier and the agreed contract value for the A45 Thrapston to Rands roundabout requirement.

This award indicates demand from National Highways for specialist highway surface works delivered through an established framework route. A credible future competitor would need access to the relevant framework or an equivalent route into National Highways call-offs, together with the operational capability to deliver surfacing work on a strategic A-road. The requirement is suitable for SMEs, so smaller highway contractors may be well placed where they can demonstrate the necessary workforce, plant, traffic-management arrangements and safety controls for road infrastructure work. Businesses should also be able to manage a defined, time-limited delivery programme and provide evidence of reliable performance on comparable highway surface or carriageway maintenance projects. The awarded supplier’s large scale signals competition from contractors able to mobilise and deliver at substantial project scale.
