Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire Dales District Council purchased three 4x4 pick-up trucks outright for delivery in the East Midlands. The requirement covers both single-cab and double-cab vehicles, with two-wheel-drive or four-wheel-drive configurations, each up to 3,500 kg gross vehicle weight. This is a vehicle supply opportunity rather than a leasing, fleet-management or maintenance service. The procurement falls under the goods category and is classified as pick-ups (CPV 34131000). It is relevant to commercial vehicle manufacturers, authorised dealers, fleet suppliers and distributors able to supply multiple light commercial vehicles meeting the specified weight and configuration requirements. The buyer is Derbyshire Dales District Council, based in Matlock.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 28 July 2026 to B&B Tractors Ltd. The awarded contract value is £124,787.50. The contract period runs from 31 July 2026 to 4 December 2026. The award followed a selective call-off from the Nottingham City Council Light Commercial Vehicles Purchase Framework, using the framework’s pick-up vehicle lots, without reopening competition. The tender submission deadline was 26 May 2026 at 12:00. The award was for the full requirement of three vehicles, and the award value is the same as the overall procurement value. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The evaluation basis recorded for this call-off is the framework route and its applicable vehicle requirements.

This award demonstrates a local authority requirement for a small fleet of new 4x4 pick-up trucks covering both single-cab and double-cab formats and both drivetrain options. A credible future supplier would need established access to suitable light commercial vehicles, the ability to source and deliver three vehicles as a coordinated order, and the capacity to meet a gross vehicle weight ceiling of 3,500 kg. Experience supplying public-sector or fleet customers would help demonstrate reliable fulfilment, while framework access or another compliant route into council procurement would be commercially important. The successful supplier was an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a focused vehicle dealer or specialist commercial-vehicle supplier rather than only a large manufacturer.
