## Summary

The procurement process for the S278 Highway Works project in Eastway, Preston, is being managed by Lancashire County Council, with the aim of selecting contractors to construct a new roundabout and associated cycleways. The procurement falls under the engineering and construction works category and has a total value of £750,000. The tender period concluded on 19 April 2016, with the contract period scheduled to run from 11 July 2016 to 31 October 2016. This selective tendering process was conducted under a restricted procedure and emphasises the council's commitment to engage local contractors.

This tender represents a substantial opportunity for both small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) looking to expand their portfolio in civil engineering and construction. Companies proficient in highway construction, civil engineering consultancy, and road maintenance would be particularly well-suited to compete. Engaging in this project could enhance a business's experience and visibility within the public sector, paving the way for future contracts with local authorities and increasing their capacity for bigger projects.
