The procurement method was selective, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement, and it involved an award stage as of 22nd December 2025. The project aims to explore feasibility strategies for electric vehicle charging across mixed fleet depots and outstations worldwide, including the United Kingdom and various Oversea Territories, targeting a contract value of approximately £74,637.12. The contract period spans from 22nd December 2025 to 22nd February 2026, solely involving collaboration with Costain Limited. This tender provides significant business growth opportunities for firms specializing in development consultancy and those with expertise in energy and power demand assessments in mixed vehicle fleet locations. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are deemed suitable for participation, encouraging innovation and integration of advanced energy solutions. By engaging with National Highways, firms can leverage this project to enhance their portfolio in sustainable infrastructure development and contribute to decarbonising business travel for a net zero future. ## Notice National Highways has requirements from OZEV for a zero-emission fleet by 2030, and within its net zero plan has commitments to decarbonise business travel and support its supply chain vehicles transition. This work feeds into understanding the energy and power demand across out depots and outstations, expanding this from understanding Traffic Officer (TO) requirements to all vehicle requirements This will eventually be across the whole estate, but this direct award focuses on where the Traffic Officer Vehicles (TOVs) are co-located at depots. National Highways SES Energy Team previously worked with consultant Costain, mapping out TOV telemetry data to understand vehicle dwell locations and times. This work highlighted what power and vehicle charging technology would be required to support a TOV fleet under the existing operational use case across a select number of sites. The next phase of this work will complete this analysis for the remainder of TO outstations alongside the remainder of the estate. As many of the NH sites are mixed vehicle fleet locations, it is important to understand the electrical capacity requirements and demand profiles for the other vehicle types to ensure suitable electrical upgrades are completed and avoid secondary disruptive and costly work. This work will also identify sites which can be 'early adopters' and which sites will be more complex to complete due to the current electrical capacity at each location. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5a606da8-bdb5-4692-bee5-75bce1241539 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Call-off from a framework agreement | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 22 Dec 2025 | | Submission deadline | 17 Nov 2025 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 22 Dec 2025 | | Contract period | 22 Dec 2025 - 22 Feb 2026 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £75,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £74,637 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NATIONAL HIGHWAYS LIMITED | | Locality | BIRMINGHAM | | Post town | Birmingham | | Postcode | B4 6GA | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLG West Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLG3 West Midlands | | ITL 3 | TLG31 Birmingham | | Local authority | Birmingham | | Electoral ward | Ladywood | | Westminster constituency | Birmingham Ladywood | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | COSTAIN | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73220000 - Development consultancy services ## Release History - 22 Dec 2025 at 09:36 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5a606da8-bdb5-4692-bee5-75bce1241539 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5a606da8-bdb5-4692-bee5-75bce1241539 22nd December 2025 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
