Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured white road salt for delivery to multiple depots across the North West of England. This is a goods requirement for road salt, classified under CPV 34927100. The order supports National Highways’ operational need to supply its depots with salt for road network activities. The requirement is geographically focused on the North West rather than a single named site, so relevant suppliers would need to serve multiple depot locations in that area. The buyer is National Highways Limited, based in Birmingham. The procurement is specifically for white salt, rather than a broader highways maintenance or road treatment service, making salt producers, distributors and suppliers of winter road treatment materials the most relevant businesses.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 2 August 2026, and the award was made on 3 August 2026 to J C Peacock & Co Limited. The awarded contract value is £41,610 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 4 August 2026 to 31 August 2026. The award is active, and the tender is marked complete. The requirement was evaluated and placed through the existing framework call-off route rather than an open competition. The order covers the North West white salt requirement for multiple depots, with one supplier receiving the award.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for white road salt across multiple National Highways depots in the North West. Competitors seeking to be credible when a comparable requirement returns would need reliable access to white salt, suitable storage and distribution arrangements, and the operational capacity to supply more than one depot. Experience in supplying road salt or related winter road treatment materials would help demonstrate relevant capability. The route to market is a framework call-off, so suppliers would need to understand framework procurement and hold, or work through, an appropriate framework position. The opportunity was recorded as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, although the selected supplier was a large business.
