Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited commissioned highway surface works on the A458 between Shrewsbury and the Welsh border, focused on pavement and drainage risk reduction. The requirement is to improve road surfacing and drainage along this route. The buyer is National Highways Limited, based in Annesley, England. The work concerns a specific stretch of the A458 rather than a general highways maintenance requirement.

The procurement is complete and FM Conway Ltd was selected for the contract. The award was made on 11 September 2026. The contract runs from 12 September 2026 to 25 February 2027, with an awarded value of £2,416,216.12. The work was procured as a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 11 September 2026 at 12:00. The procurement was classified as works, and small and medium-sized enterprises were considered suitable. The tender data gives no award-scoring criteria, so the basis on which competing offers were evaluated cannot be described.

For suppliers that did not win, this award shows National Highways' demand for targeted pavement and drainage risk-reduction works on the A458 between Shrewsbury and the Welsh border. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to deliver highway surfacing and drainage works on a defined trunk-road route, with the capacity to carry out a focused programme of works. The buyer used a call-off from a framework, so suppliers seeking similar work would need to be positioned to compete through the relevant framework route. The procurement identified SMEs as suitable, indicating that smaller firms could be credible participants, subject to meeting the requirements of the framework and the specific works package. The selected supplier was a large company.
