## Summary

National Highways Limited procured Poppulo Harmony, a digital communications software package for its LTC programme. The tool enables content to be shared with the wider programme through email, intranet pages, display panels and an application. Its purpose is to support communication between the client team, delivery partners and other stakeholders through multiple media. The requirement is for unlimited administrator-user access, providing a central communications capability rather than physical goods or construction work. It is a software and digital communications service used by National Highways in support of programme communications. The named buying organisation is National Highways Limited, a central government public authority based in Birmingham.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Poppulo. National Highways used a direct award below the applicable threshold and without competition. The contract was signed on 17 September 2026 and runs from 2 October 2026 to 30 September 2029. Its value is £33,495.75 excluding VAT, or £40,194.90 including VAT. The award covers the single requirement for Poppulo Harmony unlimited administrator-user access. Poppulo is the selected supplier and the award remains active. The published outcome identifies the product as desktop communications software. The procurement was treated as a goods category and was conducted under the relevant 2023 UK public procurement legislation.

This procurement shows demand from National Highways for an established digital communications platform that can distribute programme content through email, intranet, display panels and an application. Suppliers competing for a future requirement of this kind would need to provide comparable multi-channel publishing, support communications between a client team, delivery partners and other stakeholders, and accommodate unlimited administrator-user access. Credibility would depend on demonstrating a mature software product that can serve a whole programme rather than a single communications channel, with the capacity to support varied audiences and content distribution methods. The award also indicates that National Highways has used a direct, below-threshold route for this type of software requirement.
