## Summary

This procurement falls under the industry category of construction, classified specifically under CPV code 45000000. The procurement process is a direct single tender action involving Cadent Gas Plc, and it is already in the active tender stage, with the tender published on 2nd September 2025.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses involved in construction and infrastructure projects, particularly those specialising in utility diversions and highway infrastructure. However, due to the nature of the procurement method, it might be best suited to organisations already familiar with public-sector operations and possessing relevant certifications and experience. Large-scale construction companies which can manage direct awards effectively and operate efficiently within public procurement constraints would find this contract beneficial in expanding their portfolio in technical infrastructure projects. Despite the procurement being below the threshold, engagement with Derbyshire County Council can pave the way for future collaborations, enhancing reputation and credibility in the public sector domain.
