Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured highway surface works for the A36 Bemerton to St Paul’s roundabout section, including Castle roundabout. The requirement is classified as surface work for highways and is categorised as works. Delivery is associated with the United Kingdom and the named A36 route and roundabouts. The work concerns maintaining or improving highway surfacing across this road bundle, rather than supplying goods or general consultancy. It is relevant to contractors experienced in road surfacing, carriageway works and associated highway construction activities, particularly businesses able to operate on strategic roads managed by National Highways. The procurement identified the opportunity as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and not for voluntary, community or social enterprises.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. Bids were due by 30 July 2026 at 12:00, and the award was made on 30 July 2026. Holcim UK Limited was selected for £984,132.34 including the stated GBP currency. The contract period runs from 31 July 2026 to 8 October 2026. The published information identifies the requirement as a single highway-surfacing works package for the A36 route bundle. The award outcome is active. The available procurement details identify the work category and framework call-off route, while the published outcome does not set out a separate price-versus-quality weighting or other detailed evaluation formula.

For competitors, this award demonstrates demand from National Highways for substantial, short-duration highway surface works on the A36, delivered through a framework call-off. A credible future supplier would need practical road-surfacing and carriageway-construction capability, the workforce and equipment to deliver a strategic-road package, and the operational capacity to complete works within a tightly defined delivery window. Experience of working safely and effectively on major roads would be commercially relevant, as would the systems needed to manage traffic, quality, programme and site coordination where required by the highway authority. The opportunity was assessed as suitable for SMEs, so a capable smaller contractor may be well placed to compete directly or through a framework position and supply-chain relationships.
