Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited bought corporate network services for its infrastructure and platforms networks. The requirement covers network infrastructure services (CPV 32424000) supporting the organisation’s national highways operations. Delivery spans the United Kingdom, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, Europe, British Overseas Territories and other locations worldwide. National Highways Limited is based in Birmingham, England. This is a services requirement rather than a goods or construction contract. It is relevant to network operators, telecommunications and IT infrastructure providers, managed network service companies, and systems integrators able to support geographically dispersed public infrastructure environments. The requirement is aimed at an established corporate network services provider rather than a voluntary, community or social enterprise, or a small or medium-sized business.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 7 August 2026 at 12:00 BST, and the contract was awarded on 6 August 2026. TELENT TECHNOLOGY SERVICES LIMITED was selected for the contract at an awarded value of £3,909,721. The contract period runs from 9 August 2026 to 8 August 2028. The award is recorded as active. The contracting route and outcome indicate that suppliers needed access to the relevant framework and the ability to deliver a substantial corporate network services requirement for National Highways across the stated UK and international delivery locations.

This award demonstrates a significant requirement for corporate network infrastructure supporting a major national public infrastructure organisation. Businesses considering future work with National Highways would need credible capability in the design, provision, management and support of network services across dispersed operational locations, including sites in the UK and overseas territories. Framework participation is commercially important because this requirement was let as a framework call-off rather than as an open standalone competition. Competitors would also need the organisational capacity, service management processes and technical resilience expected of a large network services provider supporting critical highways infrastructure. The selected supplier’s scale indicates that providers should be able to manage complex, geographically distributed services and sustained delivery for a large public-sector customer.
