Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by Kingston Upon Hull City Council involves the contracting of Facultatieve Technologies Limited for service, repair, and maintenance of crematoria equipment located at Hull Crematorium on Chanterlands Avenue. This tender, classified under repair and maintenance services of machinery (CPV code 50530000), falls within the services industry category. The procurement phase is complete, with the contract awarded and signed on 1st June 2026 and includes a total value of £213,423. Given the limited procurement method used, such as a direct award without prior publication of a call for competition, Facultatieve Technologies Limited was selected due to their exclusive intellectual property rights related to the installed cremator system.

This contract presents a unique business opportunity primarily for specialised companies possessing proprietary technologies or expertise in the repair and maintenance of crematorium systems. Such businesses, particularly small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) equipped with exclusive technologies, could benefit significantly from similar contracts by aligning themselves with large procurement bodies like regional or local authorities. Given the specialised nature of the service required and the necessity of owning specific intellectual property rights, businesses with niche mechanical repair services that can safeguard intellectual property will find this opportunity particularly advantageous.
