UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process for the supply of 1,200 signs by Derbyshire County Council is currently in the planning stage. This initiative, involving goods procurement, aims to find suitable contractors for illuminated traffic signs, road signs, and their installation, under a projected gross value of £4,800,000. The contract period is scheduled from 30th May 2027 to 29th May 2031, with Derbyshire County Council, a sub-central government public authority based in Matlock, UK, overseeing the process. The procurement is anticipated to commence with a future notice date on 1st January 2027, targeting deliveries within the UKF1 region. The legal basis for this tender is outlined in the UKPGA 2023/54.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities for firms specialising in sign manufacturing and road infrastructure services. Companies that produce and install traffic and road signs would be particularly well-suited to participate, given the nature of the goods and installation services required. Derbyshire County Council serves as the buyer, providing a reliable foothold in contractual relationships with public sector organisations. Businesses capable of delivering comprehensive sign solutions, including illumination and installation, are encouraged to apply to leverage this opportunity for sustained revenue generation over the four-year contract period.
