Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire County Council hired a JCB 411 front-loading machine fitted with a HiTip bucket and winter specification. This is a plant hire service for construction or civil engineering machinery, rather than a purchase of equipment. The stated requirement is for the machine and bucket; no further operating or delivery tasks are described. The delivery location is identified as England, and the buying council is based in Matlock, Derbyshire. The requirement is therefore relevant to plant hire businesses able to supply this type of front loader with the specified bucket and winter specification for work in England.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to clee hill plant. The council used a direct award. The award was made on 21 October 2026, following a submission deadline of 20 October 2026. The contract period runs from 22 October 2026 to 30 April 2027. The awarded contract value is £26,172.50. This is a single stated requirement, with no separate lots described. The evaluation basis and any specific eligibility conditions are not set out in the procurement details, so the award provides no stated comparison criteria or qualification threshold for suppliers to use when assessing a future competition.

This award shows that Derbyshire County Council buys short-term hire of a specific front-loading JCB, equipped with a HiTip bucket and winter specification. A supplier seeking to compete for the same requirement in future would need access to this machine configuration and the capacity to provide it for the required hire period in England. Plant hire firms with relevant construction or civil engineering machinery in their fleet are the closest fit. The selected supplier is identified as an SME, although the procurement marks the opportunity as unsuitable for SMEs and does not explain that designation. No particular accreditation, operator provision, maintenance service or other capability is stated as a condition of the award, so these should not be treated as confirmed requirements.
