## Summary

National Highways Limited procured works under the requirement titled “HRE - KLM/68A - Elderslie - Greenock Princes Pier - Union Street”. The work falls within railway maintenance and service vehicles, including railway freight wagons, corresponding to CPV 34621000. The procurement is classified as works rather than goods or services, so the requirement concerns delivery or execution of work associated with this railway-related need. The stated delivery coverage includes the United Kingdom, Europe, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world. The buying organisation is National Highways Limited, based in Birmingham. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, while participation was not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It was run as a selective procedure and awarded as a call-off from a framework agreement, rather than as a standalone open competition. Balfour Beatty Construction Ltd received the active award on 10 September 2026 for £11,984 including the stated GBP currency. The contract period runs from 10 September 2026 to 31 March 2027. The procurement value is also recorded as £11,984. The award was published on 11 September 2026. The stated subject is railway maintenance or service vehicles and railway freight wagons, with the main category being works. No lots or separate awards are recorded, so the outcome concerns one supplier and one requirement.

For suppliers that did not win, this award shows that National Highways Limited uses a framework call-off to buy relatively small, defined packages of railway-related works. A credible competitor for comparable requirements would need capability in railway maintenance activities and the servicing, supply or operation of railway maintenance vehicles or freight wagons, together with the capacity to deliver a time-limited package for a major national infrastructure buyer. The successful supplier was Balfour Beatty Construction Ltd, a large construction business, indicating that established civil engineering or rail delivery capability can support competition for this type of work. SMEs were considered suitable, so smaller businesses with relevant technical competence and framework access may also be well placed when similar requirements return.
