Summary of the contracting process

Corserv Solutions Limited is buying, with NY Highways Limited and Via East Midlands Limited, a framework for highway signs, street nameplates and other general signage. The scope covers manufacture and supply, supply with installation, permanent and temporary signs, sign clips, posts, fixings and related accessories. It includes both finished signs and the components needed to install them. Delivery covers the South West, East Midlands, North West and Yorkshire and the Humber, with specific requirements for the NY Highways area. This is a goods procurement for businesses supplying road and street signage, sign materials, posts, fixings or associated installation services. The framework can be used by Via East Midlands and NY Highways as participating buyers.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through an open procedure for a framework allowing contracts with and without reopening competition. The tender deadline was 9 February 2026, with enquiries closing on 2 February and award decisions due by 7 March. Awards were made on 3 July 2026: Hirst Signs and Limelight Signs for highway signs; Nibra Signs and Contract Sign Systems for street nameplates; Contract Sign Systems and Royal British Veterans Enterprise for general signage; Royal British Veterans Enterprise and Ansco Signs for posts, fixings and accessories; and Ansco Signs and Limelight Signs for permanent signs, with the award covering related permanent and temporary-sign lots. Contracts were signed from 20 to 28 July 2026. Lot contract values were £760,000, £48,000, £900,000, £500,000 and £940,000 excluding VAT respectively. Evaluation weighted commercial price at 55% and quality, including social value, at 45%.

This procurement shows sustained demand for suppliers able to manufacture and distribute highway and street signs across several English regions, with additional capability for installation, temporary signage, sign clips and supporting hardware. The requirement was suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises, and all awarded suppliers were specialist sign businesses or related enterprises; the field included a sheltered-workshop provider. A credible competitor would therefore need dependable sign production, access to materials and posts, accurate fulfilment across multiple buyer areas, and the operational capacity to handle both routine supply and installation requirements. Evidence of quality and social value mattered nearly as much as price in evaluation. Suppliers should also be able to operate within a framework used by several public-sector highway organisations, including arrangements where individual requirements may be competed again.
