Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire County Council procured works at Chesterfield Library involving the installation of new ceilings and lighting. The requirement sits within the construction and building-services market, with electrical installation forming the identified specialist work. Delivery is associated with Chesterfield and the surrounding Derbyshire area. The buyer is a sub-central public authority responsible for the library works. This opportunity would be relevant to contractors able to combine, manage or subcontract ceiling installation and electrical lighting works in a public library environment. Firms focused solely on unrelated supplies, consultancy or routine facilities management would be less closely aligned with the requirement. The procurement was structured as a single package of works.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Derbyshire County Council selected FULL WAVE ELECTRICAL, an SME based in Buxton, for the works. The contract was signed on 14 July 2026 and runs from 20 July 2026 to 24 August 2026. Its value is £35,536.50 excluding VAT, or £42,643.80 including VAT. The process was a below-threshold procurement under the Procurement Act 2023, and the tender had one completed lot. The award is active and the contract is active. The identified classification is electrical installation work. The published outcome records the selected supplier and the agreed contract value for the Chesterfield Library ceiling and lighting works.

This award indicates a defined local-authority requirement for coordinated ceiling and lighting installation in a public library setting. A credible future competitor would need practical delivery experience in electrical installation, lighting works and ceiling installation, or a reliable delivery model bringing those capabilities together. Relevant firms are likely to include electrical contractors, building-services contractors and small construction businesses able to manage a short, focused package of public-building works. Suppliers should be able to plan work around an occupied or public-facing facility, coordinate trades, maintain safe working practices and deliver an installation to the council’s specification. The successful supplier’s SME status also shows that this scale of council works can suit smaller specialist businesses.
