Summary of the contracting process

This procurement process, initiated by Wealden District Council, focuses on the supply and installation of a FTIV Hybrid Cremator. Located in Hailsham, United Kingdom, the buying organisation is classified as a public authority within the sub-central government. The procurement falls under the 'goods' category with additional service elements, specifically aimed at augmenting existing infrastructure. The process is a direct award, justified by technical reasons and the need for compatibility with the current system. The contract covers the period from 1st March 2026 to 28th February 2027 with key dates including the award notice published on 31st October 2025. The crematory equipment is expected to be delivered to the UKJ22 region.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses, particularly those in the large-scale production or supply of industrial cremators, to expand their market with public sector organisations. With FACULTATIEVE TECHNOLOGIES LIMITED already positioned as the supplier, there is a clear preference for businesses that can ensure seamless integration into existing systems. Companies specialising in cutting-edge crematory technology will find themselves well-suited to compete in such procurement processes, especially those that can offer innovative and efficient solutions compatible with current flue gas treatment systems.
