## Summary

The procurement process detailed here is an upcoming initiative by Blackpool Council, which aims to establish a Highways Flexible Framework for various highways requirements. This initiative, currently in the planning stage, involves creating several lots covering highways surveys, materials, surface treatments, drainage, and more, including tram track repairs and road markings. The initiative is categorised under the "works" industry and is located in the UKD42 region. Estimated at a gross value of £11 million, the contract is yet to have a determined procurement route, with the framework agreement anticipated to start from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2030. A future notice is expected by 1st September 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in road construction and maintenance, landscaping, and traffic management services. Firms offering these services, particularly those classified as SMEs, can benefit significantly by participating, as the planned framework offers a structured and potentially extensive pipeline of projects over several years. The procurement is open to businesses with expertise in highways consultancy and engineering, indicating a diverse range of opportunities within the infrastructure domain. The framework's establishment could enhance business capabilities, expand regional influence, and increase project portfolios for suitable enterprises.
