Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Ealing is procuring a two-lot highways works term contract for delivery across Ealing, London. Lot 1 covers reactive, routine and planned highway maintenance, including pothole and footway repairs, gully cleansing, road markings, crossover construction, minor highway-structure works, emergency call-outs, winter maintenance, resurfacing and repaving programmes. Lot 2 covers minor and major planned highway and public-realm improvements, including new or upgraded footways, cycle infrastructure, bus-priority measures, junction improvements, safety schemes, sustainable drainage features, traffic calming and resurfacing within wider capital schemes. This is a works contract involving highway construction, maintenance and associated road services, including engineering, paving, asphalting and road-marking activities. Both lots are suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The procurement has reached tender: Ealing invited offers through an open procedure. Bidders could bid for both lots, with up to two lots available for award. Enquiries had to be submitted by 2 October 2026 at 17:00, and tenders by 30 October 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The evaluation decision was due by 22 December 2026 at 23:59 UTC. Each lot covers 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2032, with an option to extend through two further one-year periods, up to 31 March 2034. The estimated value is £140 million excluding VAT and £168 million including VAT overall; each lot is estimated at £70 million excluding VAT and £84 million including VAT. Evaluation for each lot is 70% price, 20% method statement and 10% social value, with economic and technical selection requirements set out in the invitation documents.

This opportunity suits principal highways contractors and specialist civil-engineering businesses able to deliver term maintenance or planned improvement programmes in an urban local-authority environment. Relevant capability includes rapid response to reactive repairs and emergencies, routine and planned maintenance, pothole and footway repair, gully cleansing, road marking, resurfacing, repaving, winter maintenance and minor highway-structure works. Lot 2 additionally requires experience in capital schemes involving footways, cycle routes, bus-priority measures, junctions, road safety, sustainable drainage, traffic calming and wider public-realm improvements. Bidders should be able to demonstrate the technical and economic capacity required by the invitation documents, produce robust method statements and deliver measurable social value. The structure allows SMEs to participate, while firms with broader delivery capacity can pursue both lots.
