Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

This is a large term contract worth £4.4 million, which will likely require specialist highway treatment equipment, a sizable workforce, proven track record in similar projects, and the financial capacity to manage a long-term partnership with a local authority. Most small independent traders would struggle with the scale and specialisation required.
