Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited commissioned a pavement survey under the “PDF Framework - A3M J3 to 5” requirement. The work concerns surveying pavement conditions on the A3M between junctions 3 and 5, supporting highway surface and maintenance planning. It is classified as surface work for highways (CPV 45233210) and falls within the works category. The delivery coverage is the United Kingdom, with the procurement record also listing the Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Europe, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world. National Highways Limited is the buyer and the requirement is associated with its highway network. Businesses relevant to this type of work include firms providing pavement condition surveys, highway inspection, road-surface assessment and related technical support for major-road infrastructure.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. Bids were due by 8 April 2026 at 12:00. National Highways Limited awarded the contract to Associated Asphalt Contracting Limited on 8 April 2026 for £30,095.23 including the stated GBP currency. The contract period runs from 9 April 2026 to 30 April 2026. The award is recorded as active. The requirement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, while participation was not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The published information does not set out separate lots or an award-scoring breakdown, so the recorded procurement route and framework call-off are the main indicators of how the supplier was selected.

This award demonstrates demand from National Highways for specialist pavement survey work on a defined section of the strategic road network. A credible future competitor would need practical capability in pavement condition assessment and highway surface work, together with the equipment, trained staff and operational controls needed to work safely around a major-road environment. Experience delivering accurate survey outputs that support maintenance decisions would be commercially relevant. The framework call-off route also indicates that suppliers seeking similar work should understand framework participation and call-off requirements, rather than relying only on open-market tendering. The requirement was assessed as suitable for SMEs, making it relevant to smaller specialist highway, pavement-testing and road-survey businesses with sufficient technical capacity and demonstrable experience.
