## Summary

Derbyshire County Council has awarded a contract for the maintenance and calibration of workshop equipment, titled PLACE864ET Workshop Equipment Maintenance & Calibration, to J.H.M.BUTT & CO.LIMITED. The contract was active from 17th March 2026 and is valued at £39,246 with an option for renewal for three further 12-month periods, potentially extending up to 2031. This procurement falls under the services category and is carried out through an open competition method, specifically below threshold specifications. The contract aligns with the maintenance and repair of approximately 1600 assets across five vehicle maintenance workshops in Derbyshire, thereby indicating that the needs are centred around calibration weights and repair services.

This tender opens growth opportunities for businesses involved in the repair and maintenance services industry, particularly those specialising in calibration processes. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in workshop equipment services and capable of fulfilling contracts spanning five locations within Derbyshire are well-positioned to compete. By engaging in such contracts, businesses can expand their portfolio and enhance service delivery capabilities while ensuring compliance with rigorous quality standards required by a sub-central public authority like Derbyshire County Council. The involvement in such publicly awarded contracts can significantly boost a company's credibility and market standing in the United Kingdom.
