## Description
* This UK6 Contract Award Notice replaces the previously published UK6 Contract Award Notice (Notice Identifier: 2026/S 000-063302). 
The replacement notice is required due the withdrawal of a supplier's tenders for Lot 6 and Lot 7 following the publication of the original notice.
The purpose of this notice is to ensure that the published contract award information accurately reflects the revised outcome of the procurement process for the Framework.*
This tender notice is for the award of a Framework (a public contract) following a competitive tendering procedure by means of an open procedure in accordance with section 20(1) and (2)(a) of the Procurement Act 2023.
The Road Asset Management (RAM) Surface Dressing Framework will include the following work activities:
- Application of surface dressing.
- Associated road markings.
- Delivery of temporary traffic management as part of associated civils works on live trafficked public roads.
- Other associated ancillary works.
The Framework comprises seven Lots.
This notice sets out the eligible suppliers being appointed to the Framework.
A Surface Dressing Measured Term Contract (MTC) will be awarded from each Lot to deliver surface dressing schemes each valued up to £750,000(excluding VAT).
Each Lot corresponds to a specific geographical area:
Lot 1 - SDF S2 - Newry, Mourne & Down / Ards & North Down;
Lot 2 - SDF W2 - Derry & Strabane / Fermanagh & Omagh;
Lot 3 - SDF S1 - Armagh, Banbridge & Craigavon;
Lot 4 - SDF W1 - Mid Ulster;
Lot 5 - SDF N1 - Causeway Coast & Glens;
Lot 6 - SDF N2 - Mid & East Antrim / Antrim & Newtownabbey;
Lot 7 - SDF E1 - Belfast / Lisburn & Castlereagh
The overall cumulative value of the Framework is £80m (ex VAT) over the four-year Framework Term.
If the Contracting Authority is unable, for any reason, to award a new Surface Dressing Framework or to put in place an alternative regime to replace this Framework on its termination or expiry, any MTC Call-Off Contract established under this Framework may be extended for a further period or periods up to a maximum of 12 additional months.
This may increase the overall cumulative value of this Framework to £100m (ex VAT).
Framework Lot values may be shared with other Lots
