Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited commissioned works on the embankment on the north-west side of the Ship Canal, on the Warrington–Timperley route. The procurement is described as HRE works under reference SDJ2/30LW. The listed classification is railway maintenance or service vehicles and freight wagons, but the tender title and description identify an embankment project; the specific construction or repair activities are not detailed. The named delivery location is the United Kingdom, alongside broad entries for several other territories and regions. National Highways is the buyer. The requirement is therefore most relevant to civil engineering and infrastructure contractors with experience of embankment works on transport routes, rather than suppliers of railway vehicles alone.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Amco Giffen. National Highways used a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The award date was 22 October 2026, and the contract period runs from 22 October 2026 to 3 February 2027. The awarded value is £61,198.06. The tender submission deadline was 22 October 2026. The procurement is identified as works, and small and medium-sized enterprises were considered suitable to participate; voluntary, community and social enterprises were not. The award information records a single supplier and one contract period. No evaluation criteria or more detailed basis for comparing offers is set out in the supplied procurement information.

For contractors competing for similar National Highways requirements, this award is evidence of demand for embankment works alongside a canal on a transport corridor. Credible suppliers would need to demonstrate relevant civil engineering and earthworks capability, including the ability to plan and deliver work in an infrastructure setting. The short, focused contract suggests a requirement suited to a team able to mobilise and complete a defined site package, rather than a broad, long-term service operation. The buyer used a selective call-off from a framework, so access to the relevant framework route is commercially important. The procurement identifies SMEs as suitable, indicating that smaller firms with appropriate technical experience and delivery capacity may be able to compete through that route.
