Summary of the contracting process

Wealden District Council, a sub-central government authority in the UK, recently awarded a contract for the supply and installation of an FTIV Hybrid Cremator at their location in Hailsham (region UKJ22). The procurement process was conducted as a direct award, primarily due to the need for compatibility with existing infrastructure, and was completed as of 31st October 2025. The contract is worth GBP 456,170 with an additional gross amount, and the contract period is scheduled to start from 1st March 2026 to 28th February 2027. The award notice was published, indicating FACULTATIEVE TECHNOLOGIES LIMITED, an SME based in Leeds, as the supplier for this procurement under the goods and services category, specifically in cremators.

This tender represents a specific opportunity for businesses involved in manufacturing or supplying cremation equipment, particularly those capable of integrating with existing flue gas treatment systems. Given its direct award nature, this procurement process highlights opportunities for partnerships or sub-contracting with larger, well-established enterprises like Facultatieve Technologies. Businesses oriented towards technical solutions that need to be compatible with existing infrastructure stand to benefit and grow by offering niche, compliant solutions in this market segment. SMEs within the goods and service industries, particularly those in environmental and waste management technology, are well-suited to leverage this and similar future opportunities.
