Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire County Council procured agency staffing for general civil and highway activities, with the requirement described as planner/administrator officer support and professional staff secondments. The work sits across construction, engineering and inspection, recruitment, business and management consultancy, and environmental management. The buyer is based in Matlock, Derbyshire, and delivery is stated for England. This is a staffing and professional-services requirement supporting the council’s civil and highway activities, rather than a contract for construction works themselves. The procurement title identifies the requirement as agency staff for 2026/27, while the description points to planning and administrative support and professional secondees.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Matchtech Group (UK) Ltd through an open procedure. The award was made on 4 September 2026, following a tender deadline of 3 September 2026. The awarded value is £40,986. The award period runs from 7 September 2026 to 6 February 2027; the tender record gives a broader contract period ending 7 March 2027. No lots are identified. The stated procurement category is services, and the work is classified as construction-related activity. Evaluation criteria and supplier eligibility requirements are not described in the available procurement details.

For recruitment agencies and professional staffing firms, this award demonstrates demand from Derbyshire County Council for agency personnel supporting civil and highway functions. A credible competitor would need to source and supply planner or administrator officers and professional staff for secondment, with recruitment capability relevant to public-sector engineering and infrastructure teams. Familiarity with civil and highway work, construction and engineering environments, and associated administration would help a supplier meet the requirement. The successful provider was a large staffing company, and the procurement was run as an open procedure; firms considering similar council requirements should be equipped to compete through a formal open competition and deliver professional personnel across the stated service areas.
