## Summary

The North Yorkshire Council is currently in the planning stage for a procurement process titled "Highway Maintenance Gangs & Other Operatives," targeting works in the construction industry category. Located in Northallerton, United Kingdom, this initiative seeks to supplement in-house resources for highway maintenance tasks. Key dates include a market engagement due on 17 April 2026 and a future notice scheduled for 6 July 2026. The procurement will officially start on 1 October 2026 and may extend until 1 September 2030. The council aims to engage suppliers by gathering information to draft a potential future tender specification.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in highway maintenance and construction services. Given the requirement for labour, vehicles, and equipment for highway maintenance, companies that provide comprehensive solutions in these areas are well-suited to compete. Moreover, the potential contract value of £4,602,051 suggests lucrative opportunities for growth, particularly for SMEs with capability and scalability in delivering these services. Interested parties can contribute to shaping the tender specification and positioning themselves as key suppliers to the North Yorkshire Highway, fostering long-term business relationships and regional development within the UK.

## Notice

North Yorkshire Highway (NYH) (the 'Client') is requesting information from suppliers to help determine the scope and feasibility of its requirement, to understand the range of potential solutions available in the market, and to assist with drafting a potential future tender specification for Highway Maintenance Gangs and Other Operatives. The Highway Maintenance Gangs is for the supply of gangs, comprising labour, vehicle, and appropriate plant and equipment, to work independently on highway maintenance tasks, under the general supervision of the Client's staff. This will supplement in-house Highway Maintenance Gang resources during periods when the Client faces additional demand.
