Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire County Council appointed a single contractor for drainage and resurfacing works at Ilkeston Household Waste Recycling Centre in Derbyshire. The requirement addresses remedial works needed to maintain compliance with the site’s Environment Agency operating licence. The scope includes installing a full-retention separator tank, upgrading the existing drainage system, and completing associated surfacing and reinstatement works. The procurement is classified as construction and civil engineering work, including site preparation and surfacing. Delivery is at Ilkeston HWRC. This is a council-led works requirement rather than a supply-only contract, and is most relevant to civil engineering, drainage, earthworks and surfacing contractors able to undertake coordinated remedial works at an operational household waste recycling facility.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded following a below-threshold open competition. Tender enquiries closed at 17:00 on 19 June 2026 and tender submissions closed at 11:00 on 3 July 2026. One lot was awarded to RIO SURFACING LIMITED. The contract was signed on 19 August 2026, runs from 21 August to 28 December 2026, and covers works planned to start in October and finish in December 2026. Its value is £142,096.45 excluding VAT, or £170,515.74 including VAT. Derbyshire County Council evaluated tenders using 70% price and 30% quality. The lot was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This award demonstrates demand from Derbyshire County Council for integrated drainage and surfacing remediation at a licensed waste-recycling site. A credible future competitor would need to deliver the full package through one coordinated team: separator-tank installation, drainage-system upgrades, civil engineering, site preparation, surfacing and reinstatement. Experience working around operational household waste recycling facilities would help, particularly where works must support environmental compliance and interface with an Environment Agency licence. The successful supplier was an SME, indicating that a smaller specialist contractor can be suitably placed for this scale of requirement. Businesses with proven drainage and surfacing capability, reliable project management and relevant remedial-works experience would be well positioned when comparable council requirements return to market.
