Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire County Council procured illuminated traffic and road safety equipment for ongoing maintenance programmes, planned asset replacement and safety-critical interventions across Derbyshire’s road network. The requirement covers illuminated traffic sign lanterns, illuminated bollards, Belisha beacons, refuge beacons and flashing amber warning lights. It also includes surge protection devices used with highway electrical equipment, together with associated accessories such as transformers and wiring. This is a goods supply requirement rather than a construction or installation contract. The procurement is categorised primarily as lighting equipment and electric lamps, with related electrical protection apparatus and road equipment. Delivery is for the United Kingdom, with the operational requirement focused on Derbyshire’s highways and the Council’s road asset network.

The procurement process is complete and the contract was awarded on 28 August 2026 to Marwood Electrical Company Limited. The awarded value is £250,000. The contract period runs from 4 September 2026 to 3 September 2028. The tender submission deadline was 27 August 2026 at 23:59. The procurement used a tender process, with the method described as “Other”. The requirement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is active and covers the full supply requirement described for Derbyshire’s highways. The successful supplier is a small or medium-sized enterprise. No lot structure or separate award values are stated, so the opportunity was awarded as a single contract at the value shown.

This award demonstrates established demand from Derbyshire County Council for specialist highway electrical and illuminated safety equipment supporting maintenance, replacement and urgent safety work. Suppliers considering future opportunities with this buyer would need dependable access to illuminated signs, bollards, beacons, warning lights, surge protection equipment and compatible electrical accessories. Credibility would also depend on being able to supply a varied product range, maintain consistent availability for planned asset cycles and respond reliably to safety-critical requirements across a county road network. The successful supplier was an SME, indicating that a smaller specialist distributor or manufacturer can compete for this scale of public-sector supply requirement. Experience serving highways, local authorities or comparable infrastructure operators would help demonstrate understanding of road safety equipment and operational resilience.
