## Summary

The procurement process for the Ipswich Motorway Maintenance Compound Construction Contract was led by National Highways Limited. This process, classified under the building construction work category (CPV code 45210000), took place in the East of England, United Kingdom. The procurement method used was selective, specifically through a call-off from a framework agreement. The tendering phase concluded on 28th November 2025, and the contract was awarded to Willmott Dixon Construction Ltd on 22nd December 2025, with the contract period running until 26th February 2027. The total contract value is GBP 13,978,931, aimed at constructing a motorway maintenance compound.

This contract offers substantial opportunities for businesses, especially those experienced in large-scale construction projects within the infrastructure sector. It provides a platform for growth for companies capable of delivering complex building works under a framework agreement. While the contract targets larger organisations, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) might find collaborative opportunities or sub-contracting roles beneficial, as this procurement encourages SME suitability despite not prioritising VCSE engagement. The involvement of a major buyer like National Highways Limited suggests potential for future procurement opportunities within the realm of national infrastructure projects.
