Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire County Council procured bulk propane gas for its highways depot at Stonegravels, Meltham Lane, Stonegravels, S41 7LG. The requirement is for the supply and delivery of propane to the depot, where Flogas owns the on-site storage tank. This is a fuel supply service for a council highways facility, rather than a request for tank installation or ownership. The work is tied to this specific depot in Stonegravels, England. The stated purpose and scope are to keep the depot supplied with bulk propane; no other fuels or delivery locations are described.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Flogas Britain Limited on 19 October 2026. Derbyshire County Council used an open procedure. The estimated tender value and awarded contract value are each £10,000. The contract period runs from 20 October 2026 to 31 December 2027. One requirement is described, for bulk propane supply and delivery to Stonegravels Highways Depot; no division into lots is indicated. The award information identifies Flogas as the selected supplier. The tender record gives no separate evaluation criteria, so the award basis cannot be characterised beyond the open procedure. The procurement is categorised as services, with gaseous fuels identified as the subject matter.

For suppliers assessing comparable future requirements from Derbyshire County Council, this award demonstrates demand for a straightforward bulk propane supply serving a highways depot. A credible competitor would need to source propane reliably and deliver it to the Stonegravels site, as well as meet the practical requirements of supplying a location with an existing on-site tank. The arrangement awarded to Flogas, which owns that tank, makes the relationship between fuel supply and site infrastructure particularly relevant: suppliers without control of or a workable arrangement for the tank may be less well placed. The requirement is modest in scale and focused on a single depot, rather than a multi-site fuel operation. The buyer selected a supplier through an open procedure.
