OJEU - F2 - Contract Notice
Summary of the contracting process

North Lanarkshire Council is seeking a single supplier for road works compliance monitoring services, focused on material testing. The work covers North Lanarkshire Council roadworks and includes recording contractors’ road-laying and compaction activities, alongside compliance testing of materials against required standards and specifications. The service supports the council in checking that road construction activities and materials meet contractual, technical and regulatory requirements. Delivery is across North Lanarkshire, with the buying organisation based in Motherwell. This is a specialist civil engineering, highways quality assurance and construction materials testing opportunity, suitable for firms that can provide independent site monitoring and laboratory or field-based testing services for road infrastructure works.

The procurement reached tender: North Lanarkshire Council invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission in English. The tender submission deadline was 28 August 2026 at 12:00, with tender opening scheduled for the same time. The estimated procurement value is £225,000 excluding any applicable tax. It is a single-supplier framework agreement, with an initial two-year period and two optional one-year extensions, giving a maximum stated duration of 1,440 days. Bids must remain valid for 90 days. Evaluation is based on 60% price and 40% quality. Variants are not allowed. The requirement includes electronic payment and ordering, allows electronic invoicing, and incorporates community benefit obligations. The buyer’s selection requirements refer bidders to the procurement notice.

This opportunity suits an independent road materials testing, highways inspection or civil engineering quality assurance provider with experience monitoring road construction activities. Suppliers need to be able to observe and record road-laying and compaction work and test construction materials against specified standards, so practical site capability, reliable reporting and competent technical staff will be important. The requirement calls for a UKAS-accredited, or equivalent, independent third-party certificate confirming compliance with BS EN ISO 9001 quality management standards, and a corresponding certificate for BS EN ISO 14001 environmental management. A single supplier will support the council’s roadworks programme under the framework, making relevant operational capacity, geographical coverage across North Lanarkshire and the ability to maintain consistent service delivery over several years commercially significant. Community benefit commitments also apply.
