Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured highway surface works for the A47 Oversley Lodge–New Cut route. The requirement falls within construction works, specifically surface work for highways (CPV 45233210). It concerns physical highway works rather than the supply of standalone goods or professional advisory services. The stated delivery coverage includes the United Kingdom, Europe, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world. The buyer is National Highways Limited, based in Annesley, England. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, indicating that businesses of that scale were considered capable of undertaking this type of highway surfacing requirement. The procurement is associated with a framework arrangement and the A47 route requirement.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. Bids were due by 2 April 2026 at 12:00, and the award was made on 2 April 2026. Tripod Crest Limited was selected for an awarded value of £539,265.28. The contract period ran from 3 April 2026 to 30 June 2026. The procurement’s estimated value was also £539,265.28. The available process information identifies the requirement as a single highway surface-works package and records the award as active. The outcome therefore relates to one named supplier and one stated contract period, rather than multiple separately awarded lots or suppliers.

For competitors, this award provides a clear example of National Highways’ demand for defined highway surfacing works on the A47 network and of the scale of a framework call-off that can be delivered over a short period. A credible future supplier would need practical capability in highway surface construction, the plant, labour and operational capacity to complete route-based works, and experience working to National Highways’ requirements. SMEs were considered suitable, so specialist smaller contractors may be relevant where they can demonstrate sufficient delivery capacity and robust project management. Businesses should also understand how to access and compete through framework call-offs, as this buyer used that route for the requirement. Relevant evidence would include comparable highway surfacing projects, dependable mobilisation and safe delivery on operational roads.
