Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured rapid-response highway surface works under its PDF Framework for Area 4. The requirement is classified as surface work for highways (CPV 45233210). The published delivery locations span the United Kingdom and several other territories and regions; no more specific worksite is identified. This is a works contract for responding to highway requirements in the framework area, rather than a general road-maintenance service. The buyer is National Highways Limited. The requirement is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses, so the work is relevant to smaller highway contractors as well as larger firms with the ability to deliver rapid-response surface works.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Hailsham Roadways Construction Co Ltd. National Highways made the award on 28 August 2026. The awarded contract value is £171,023.40. The contract period runs from 29 August 2026 to 31 March 2027. The buyer used a selective call-off from an existing framework agreement. The tender response deadline was 28 August 2026 at 12:00. The procurement is presented as a single Area 4 requirement, with no separate lots identified. The process data records SME suitability, but gives no evaluation criteria or specific participation qualifications. The successful supplier is identified, but no award rationale or scoring basis is stated.

For highway contractors, this award is evidence that National Highways uses its PDF Framework to buy rapid-response surface works in Area 4. The winning supplier was a large construction company, while the requirement was also marked as suitable for SMEs, indicating that smaller firms can be relevant to this kind of work. A credible competitor would need to deliver highway surface works responsively and operate within the framework call-off route; the award does not set out specific accreditations, technical thresholds or capacity requirements. Firms with established highway construction capability and the resources to mobilise quickly are the closest fit to the work described. The limited contract term and defined award value show a focused requirement rather than a large multi-year programme.
