Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire County Council initiated a procurement process titled "PLACE788ET Derbyshire Food Waste Contract", aimed at selecting service providers for the reception and sustainable treatment of food waste from both household and commercial sources. This open procedure tender was divided into four lots, designated for Amber Valley Borough Council, Derbyshire Dales District Council, Erewash Borough Council, and South Derbyshire District Council, with a gross value of £1,080,000. Despite its initial active status and the potential for significant business opportunities, the process was ultimately cancelled on 29 October 2025, as indicated by the tender cancellation notice released on the same date.

This tender presented a notable opportunity for businesses in the environmental services sector, offering potential contracts for the sustainable treatment of food waste, a critical and growing industry. SMEs were particularly encouraged to apply, highlighting the procurement process's support for smaller enterprises. With a contract period extending from 1 April 2026 to 30 September 2027, and renewal opportunities based on performance, the tender provided a stable pathway for growth. Businesses with expertise in waste management, compliance with environmental standards, and those capable of delivering high-quality services would have been well-suited to compete.
