## Summary

National Highways Limited procured highway surface works for the A3 southbound between Liphook and Ham Barn. The requirement is described as a framework call-off for surface work, indicating work to the road surface on this section of the A3. National Highways is the buying organisation. The delivery location is identified by the route and endpoints in the project title; no more specific worksite detail is included in the scope description. This is a civil engineering and road maintenance requirement, rather than a purchase of goods or general services. The procurement is classified as works, with highway surface work as its principal activity.

The process is complete and the contract was awarded to Associated Asphalt Contracting Limited. The award was made on 25 September 2026. The awarded value is £91,766.43, and the contract period runs from 26 September 2026 to 4 January 2027. The procurement used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 25 September 2026 at noon. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. No evaluation criteria or scoring basis are set out in the available process details, so the basis on which the competing suppliers were assessed cannot be described further.

This award demonstrates demand from National Highways for targeted highway surface works on the A3, delivered through a framework call-off. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need the capability to carry out road-surface works on a strategic highway and to deliver a tightly defined package within a short contract period. Experience coordinating highway works and the operational capacity to work on a major road would be relevant to competing for comparable work from this buyer. Small and medium-sized enterprises were considered suitable for this procurement, showing that the work was not limited to large businesses by the stated suitability. The award to an asphalt contractor indicates that asphalt and surfacing delivery capability aligns with the requirement.
