## Summary

Derby City Council purchased a high-speed cremulator to replace its existing cremulator. This is a goods requirement for industrial machinery used in the council’s crematorium service. The equipment is intended to support the council’s ongoing cremation operations by providing a replacement for an existing machine, rather than a wider construction or service contract. Delivery is within the United Kingdom. The buyer is Derby City Council, a sub-central public authority based in Derby. The requirement was arranged as a single package covering the cremulator supply. Businesses relevant to this requirement include manufacturers, authorised distributors and specialist suppliers of crematorium or industrial processing equipment capable of supplying a high-speed cremulator replacement.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. Derby City Council selected FACULTATIEVE TECHNOLOGIES LIMITED as the supplier. The award was made on 31 August 2026. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027, with renewal provisions of three additional 12-month periods and a maximum possible end date of 31 August 2030. Its value is £31,150 excluding VAT, or £37,380 including VAT. The contract is active. The requirement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than competing bids, and covered one completed lot for the supply of the high-speed cremulator.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement from Derby City Council for replacement crematorium machinery, with a single specialist supplier selected through a below-threshold direct award. Competitors seeking comparable work would need to supply high-speed cremulator equipment and understand the operational requirements of crematorium services. Credibility would come from being a manufacturer, authorised distributor or specialist equipment provider able to deliver a like-for-like replacement for an existing machine, support the council’s service continuity and manage the associated equipment supply obligations. Relevant businesses should be able to demonstrate reliable industrial machinery delivery, technical knowledge of cremulator systems and the capacity to support a public-sector customer over an initial annual contract with potential renewals.
