Summary of the contracting process

Balfour Beatty Civil Engineering Limited is seeking an experienced contractor for a Temporary Vehicle Restraint System (TVRS) project on the A66 North Trans-Pennine route, as part of a significant road network upgrade. The procurement process is currently in the tender amendment stage. This selective procurement uses a competitive procedure with negotiation, tailored for projects above the EU-concession threshold, specifically targeting the "road barriers" industry category under CPV classification 34928110. The project, valued at £750,000, will convert 80km of single-lane sections into a dual carriageway with improved junctions, taking place in the North West region of the United Kingdom. The tender period concludes on 15 August 2025, with the contract commencing on 28 November 2025 and expected to end on 3 April 2030.

This tender presents a robust opportunity for businesses with expertise in large-scale TVRS projects to expand their portfolio and demonstrate their capability in handling major infrastructure tasks. Enterprises equipped with the necessary resources, machinery, and a proven track record will find this opportunity well-suited to their expertise. The contract calls for adherence to the Build UK Common Assessment Criteria (CAS), ensuring a consistent benchmark for business competence. While the project is designed with SME suitability in mind, larger companies with more extensive operations might also find this project advantageous for long-term growth, especially those willing to engage in strategic collaboration with Tier 1 contractors including Kier and Aureous.
