Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for "Cost Estimating Framework - Task Order - CEF02 Package 6" has reached the award stage, facilitated by National Highways Limited. This procurement, classified under project and design preparation and estimation of costs (CPV code 71242000), involves providing cost estimates for schemes in the NH road investment strategy to enhance effective management of the investment programme. It covers extensive regions including North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, and more, across the United Kingdom. The contracting process adopted a selective procurement method through a call-off from a framework agreement, with an award amounting to £1,290,000. The contract period spans from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities for companies specialising in cost estimation and project management within the transport infrastructure sector. While suited for larger suppliers, as evidenced by the awardee Benchmark Estimated Limited T/A MI Engineers, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) may find entry challenging due to framework-specific requirements. Business entities experienced in delivering precise financial assessments and consultancy in large-scale investment programmes would be highly competitive in such procurement exercises.
