The framework is focused on securing highways and civil engineering construction works across the region, encompassing three distinct lots based on project value. The tender is currently in the Award stage, having culminated on January 14, 2022, with active contracts awarded for works valued at £6 million, £14 million, and £10 million respectively. This contract is part of an open procurement method, ensuring broad participation from bidders. This framework presents significant opportunities for businesses, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in construction, civil engineering, and related fields. Companies involved in highway improvements, traffic signal installations, drainage, and other civil works are well-suited to engage with this project. With a structured bidding environment and separate lots, firms can strategically align their capabilities to secure contracts across various project values, thereby expanding their footprint in public procurement and contributing to regional development efforts. ## Notice This Framework Contract is required for the provision of highways and civils minor construction works; typically, minor highway improvements, work on bridges and structures, together with other transport related highway and civils engineering construction.
