Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the Bramshall Tunnel Contract for Importing Stone, overseen by National Highways, focuses on railway-track maintenance services. This project involves the installation of granular fill within the Bramshall Tunnel, situated about 5km southwest of Uttoxeter, Staffordshire. The process, which has concluded the award stage, appointed Amalgamated Construction t/a AmcoGiffen on 19th May 2025. The contract, valued at £296,960.71, runs from 2nd June 2025 to 31st May 2026. The procurement method was selective, utilising a call-off from a framework agreement, suited particularly for businesses within the 'works' industry category that are present in the United Kingdom and other specified regions.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses in the railway maintenance industry, especially those capable of adhering to stringent procedural standards. Given its selective procurement method, companies that are part of pre-established frameworks are particularly well-positioned. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may find this contract favourable, as it supports their inclusion in such tenders. Businesses with experience in providing Class 6C or similar approved materials used for railway maintenance would have a competitive edge in such projects.
