Summary of the contracting process

Erewash Borough Council commissioned a climate change ten-year roadmap focused on electrifying its municipal waste and refuse vehicle fleet and associated depots. The work combines infrastructure consultancy with industry-specific software development, covering the practical planning and digital support needed to help a council move its operational fleet to electric vehicles. It is a services requirement for the council, with delivery connected to its municipal fleet and depot operations. The selected delivery model involved VEV Services Limited partnering with Whitespace Work Software Limited, bringing together expertise in fleet electrification transition, infrastructure planning and software for council or industry-specific operational needs. Businesses active in public-sector fleet decarbonisation, depot electrification advice or supporting software may find the requirement relevant.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to VEV Services Limited, working with Whitespace Work Software Limited. Erewash Borough Council used a below-threshold direct award without competition under the Procurement Act 2023. The single lot is complete, and the award is active. The contract was signed on 16 July 2026 and runs from 16 July 2026 to 31 October 2026. Its value is £29,799 excluding VAT, or £35,758.80 including VAT. The award covers infrastructure works consultancy services and industry-specific software development services. The published outcome identifies VEV Services Limited as the awarded supplier. The procurement title describes a climate change ten-year roadmap for fleet and depot electrification; the recorded route was direct award rather than a competitive tender.

This award demonstrates a council requirement at the intersection of fleet decarbonisation, depot electrification and operational software. A credible future competitor would need to understand the transition of municipal waste and refuse fleets to electric vehicles, including the infrastructure implications for depots and the planning of a staged long-term roadmap. Relevant capability may include infrastructure consultancy, fleet electrification strategy, operational requirements analysis and software development tailored to industry or public-sector users. The selected supplier’s partnership model also indicates value in combining specialist electrification or consultancy expertise with a software capability, rather than treating the work as a purely advisory exercise. Businesses with experience supporting councils, local-authority services or operational vehicle fleets would be well placed to assess similar requirements from this buyer.
