In brief

Derbyshire County Council was looking for suppliers for vehicle and fleet work. Bidding has closed and no award has been published yet.

It is a framework worth up to £7,000,000 excluding VAT: the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers, not one contract.

The contract runs for 2 years, up to 8 years with extensions, starting 1 December 2026.

It is split into 17 lots, so a supplier can bid for part of the work.

The buyer says it is suitable for small and medium-sized businesses.
