Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited commissioned a Network Occupancy Support Tool as part of its cloud-based Professional Bundle. The wider system covers map and historic searches, traffic management, plan sharing, and digital Temporary Traffic Regulation Orders. This is a technology service supporting the planning, coordination and administration of road network activity, rather than a construction or physical infrastructure contract. The buyer is National Highways Limited, based in Leeds, England. Delivery is intended to support activity across the United Kingdom, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, Europe, British overseas territories and other worldwide locations. The requirement is classified as network operating system software and is principally a services procurement.

The procurement has been completed and awarded to Causeway Group Limited. The award date was 24 July 2026, following a submission deadline of 29 June 2026 at 12 noon. National Highways used a direct procurement route described as a single tender action below the threshold. The awarded contract value is £514,000. The contract runs from 7 July 2026 to 6 July 2028. Causeway Group Limited is the sole named supplier and holds an active award. The process was treated as a services contract, with the award made through a single-tender route rather than an open competition. The published outcome identifies the selected supplier and the agreed contract period.

This award demonstrates demand from National Highways for specialist software supporting road network occupancy, traffic management and digital temporary traffic regulation processes. Suppliers seeking to compete for a comparable requirement would need to provide a robust cloud-based platform that brings together mapping, historic searches, plan sharing and digital order management. Credibility would depend on showing that the tool can support operational users across a geographically broad network, integrate related transport-management activities and handle information consistently across multiple locations. Relevant providers are likely to be established technology businesses with sufficient delivery capacity, product maturity and experience of implementing professional software for highways, transport or other complex public-sector operations. The buyer’s decision also indicates that a substantial, end-to-end capability is valued.
