Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire County Council procured a four-bay, open-plan storage modular building. The requirement is classified as prefabricated buildings and falls within the goods category. The building is intended to provide open-plan storage capacity rather than a standalone service or construction programme. The council is based in Matlock, Derbyshire, and the awarded goods are to be delivered in the United Kingdom. The procurement concerns the supply of one modular storage building associated with the completed tender. This is relevant to manufacturers, distributors and specialist suppliers of prefabricated or modular buildings, particularly those able to provide open-plan storage units for public-sector buyers. The named supplier, J. T. Leavesley (Alrewas) Limited, is a small or medium-sized enterprise based near Burton-on-Trent.

This below-threshold procurement has reached completion. The contract was awarded to J. T. Leavesley (Alrewas) Limited and signed on 22 July 2026. The contract runs from 22 July 2026 to 7 October 2026. Its value is £44,049.74 excluding VAT, or £52,859.69 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The tender was not divided into multiple completed awards: the four-bay modular storage building was treated as one lot. The procurement method is recorded as below threshold, with the specific method otherwise described as unknown. The award relates to the prefabricated building requirement and delivery in the United Kingdom. The contract details were published on 24 July 2026.

This award provides a clear example of Derbyshire County Council buying a prefabricated modular building for open-plan storage from an SME supplier. A competitor seeking comparable public-sector work would need the ability to supply a four-bay modular storage building, manage the associated delivery requirements and complete the work within a short contract period. Relevant suppliers include modular-building manufacturers, prefabricated-building specialists and distributors with access to suitable units. The successful supplier profile shows that an SME can meet this type of council requirement. Businesses preparing for similar opportunities should be able to demonstrate a credible supply route for prefabricated buildings, practical delivery capability in the United Kingdom and the capacity to fulfil a discrete goods contract for a local authority.
