## Summary

National Highways Limited, a central government public authority based in Birmingham, has awarded a contract titled "UK7 - Contract Details Notice" under the services category. The procurement process was initiated due to the critical need for a specialist Service Delivery Manager to support HADECS, an enforcement technology. The contract, beginning on 26th May 2026 and potentially extending to 31st March 2027, has been awarded directly to 4 Way Consulting Ltd, located in London, without competition due to time constraints and operational necessity. The contract is valued at £156,000, excluding taxes, and is part of efforts to mitigate service risks within the Enduring Service Programme.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for SME consultancy firms with expertise in project management, particularly those capable of managing critical service delivery within the public sector. The absence of open competition in this procurement process underscores the urgency and specialised nature of the expertise required, making it particularly suited to businesses that can offer rapid and reliable consultancy services. Companies looking to expand their portfolio in governmental contracts, specifically around public service infrastructure technology, would find this opportunity particularly beneficial for growth and establishing credibility in high-stakes project management environments.

## Notice

The contract has been awarded for the provision of specialist Service Delivery Manager (SDM) to support on HADECS, a critical enforcement technology underpinning the GG104 All Lane Running safety case. The requirement is to ensure continuity of day-to-day operational management and assurance of HADECS in support of the Enduring Service Programme, mitigating immediate service degradation and associated operational and reputational risks. Due to the time-critical nature of the requirement and the absence of a viable internal or interim alternative, a time-limited direct award has been made to ensure continuity of service ahead of the required go-live date.
