Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured works for the Station Road embankment at Latchford, on the Warrington–Timperley route. The project is identified as HRE – SDJ2/32L. The classification points to railway maintenance or service vehicles and freight wagons, but the procurement is categorised as works; the supplied description does not explain the specific construction or maintenance tasks. The stated delivery locations include the United Kingdom and a broad range of overseas locations, although the project title identifies Latchford. This is a highways buyer’s infrastructure requirement focused on a named embankment site, rather than a clearly described vehicle supply contract.

The procurement is complete and awarded. National Highways Limited selected Amco Giffen through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The award date was 16 October 2026, and the stated contract period runs from 16 October 2026 to 3 February 2027. The awarded value is £69,482.66. The tender submission deadline was 16 October 2026. The procurement is presented as a single requirement, with no lots identified. Small and medium-sized enterprises were considered suitable to participate, while voluntary, community and social enterprises were not. No evaluation criteria or selection requirements are recorded in the supplied process information.

This award demonstrates a requirement for works at a specific embankment on National Highways’ Warrington–Timperley route, delivered through a framework call-off. A credible competitor for similar work would need to show relevant capability in railway or transport-infrastructure maintenance and works, and the ability to deliver safely at a defined site. The award went to Amco Giffen, a large supplier, indicating that an established contractor was selected for this requirement; however, the stated SME suitability means smaller businesses were also considered eligible. For future comparable work with this buyer, relevant site experience, suitable delivery capacity and access to the applicable framework route would be commercially pertinent. The description does not identify detailed technical tasks, accreditations or specialist equipment, so those cannot be inferred from this award.
