Description

Highways England wish to engage with suitable suppliers who can provide consolidator and distribution services.

These services include stock management, storage and distribution from one central location. This will include the provision of a catalogue management system, consolidating a wide range of sundry items, of various sizes, supplied by multiple suppliers.

We wish to discuss our requirements with suppliers who can demonstrate their ability to provide such services whilst adopting a 'Just in Time' approach and ensuring resilient yet cost efficient stock levels.

Deliveries would be to our numerous outstations and offices across England, and as such carbon efficient and co-ordinated delivery methods would be essential.

Highways England wishes to meet with suppliers to discuss our requirements and the most appropriate method of procuring these services. Appointment times will be limited, therefore please only register your interest if your company can provide all of these services and may be interested in tendering for this opportunity.
