Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "A417 Missing Link - Road Restraint System (VRS & Structures Parapets)" has been led by KIER TRANSPORTATION LIMITED under the National Highways Limited Regional Delivery Partnership (RDP). This project involves constructing a 3.4-mile dual carriageway at the A417 Missing Link in the South West of the United Kingdom. The tender was initiated as a competitive procedure with negotiation above threshold, and the contract period spans from 11 November 2024 to 2 December 2026. Key dates include the tender period ending on 20 September 2024 and the award date published on 29 October 2025. This initiative is part of the construction industry category, specifically focusing on construction work as classified under CPV code 45000000. The project has an award value of £792,319.38.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in construction, particularly those capable of handling road restraint systems and associated structures. Businesses experienced in large-scale infrastructure projects and who can meet the rigorous requirements of a selective procurement method with negotiations would be well-suited to compete. Although small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are noted for suitability, the scale of this project implies larger, more established companies may find this a growth-driving opportunity. Businesses interested in similar future opportunities should establish contact with the buyer, KIER TRANSPORTATION LIMITED, to understand upcoming procurements and collaborations.
