## Summary

Sheffield City Council procured services to maintain and service the cremators at its City Road crematorium. The requirement covers specialist cremator maintenance rather than general cemetery operations, with delivery in Sheffield and the wider Yorkshire and the Humber area. The contract was called off through the Yorkshire Purchasing Organisation Crematoria Solutions III Framework. The selected supplier, Facultatieve Technologies Ltd, is identified as the manufacturer of the cremators, indicating a requirement for equipment-specific technical support, servicing and maintenance. The procurement is categorised as a service for cemetery and cremation operations. It is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, although the awarded supplier is a large organisation. The buyer is Sheffield City Council, which owns and manages the requirement.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a direct award under the Yorkshire Purchasing Organisation Crematoria Solutions III Framework. Facultatieve Technologies Ltd received the contract on 31 July 2026 for £1,176,542 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract runs from 17 August 2026 to 16 August 2036. The tender submission deadline was 10 July 2026 at 12:00. The award was active at the recorded stage. The procurement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than an open competition, with the framework call-off and the supplier’s status as the cremator manufacturer forming the stated basis for selection. This is a single service requirement for City Road cremators, with one supplier awarded the contract.

This award demonstrates sustained demand from Sheffield City Council for specialist, long-term maintenance of cremation equipment. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need proven capability in servicing and maintaining cremators, with the technical knowledge to support the specific equipment used by the council. Manufacturer-level expertise is particularly relevant because the selected supplier was identified as the cremator manufacturer. Suppliers should also be able to provide dependable planned and responsive maintenance over a lengthy service relationship, maintain operational continuity for a crematorium, and work safely in a regulated public-service environment. Experience of crematoria or comparable thermal processing equipment would strengthen credibility. The opportunity was identified as suitable for SMEs, so a smaller specialist business with the necessary technical capacity could be relevant.
