Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured highway surface works under the PDF Framework for the A1 route between Seaton Burn and Stannington. The requirement is classified as surface work for highways (CPV 45233210) and is a works contract. The stated delivery coverage includes the United Kingdom, Europe, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world, although the procurement title identifies the A1 Seaton Burn to Stannington route as the specific requirement. The work is relevant to businesses delivering road surfacing, carriageway repairs or associated highway surface treatments for a national roads authority. The buyer is National Highways Limited, based at Stirling House in Annesley, England.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It was run as a selective call-off from a framework agreement, rather than as a new open competition. Tarmac Trading Limited was awarded the contract on 18 August 2026 for £1,815,796.06 including the published GBP currency. The contract period runs from 11 September 2026 to 2 December 2026. The requirement was evaluated through the framework call-off process; the published procurement data does not set out separate quality or price weightings. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and was not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises. One supplier is named as receiving the award.

Although this contract has already been awarded, it provides a useful benchmark for businesses targeting National Highways highway-surfacing requirements. A credible competitor would need the capability to deliver surface works on a strategic road route, manage carriageway activity safely and efficiently, and provide the plant, materials, skilled operatives and site supervision needed for short-duration highway works. The selected supplier is a large construction and surfacing business, indicating that the buyer values established delivery capacity for this type of requirement. Smaller firms are also identified as suitable, so an SME with relevant road-surfacing experience may be well placed either to compete directly through the relevant framework route or to support a larger framework supplier. Familiarity with National Highways requirements and framework call-off procedures would strengthen future competitiveness.
