## Summary

Derbyshire County Council bought bulk propane gas for its Stonegravels Highways Depot on Meltham Lane, Stonegravels, near Matlock. The requirement covers delivery of propane to the depot and depends on the existing on-site storage tank, which is owned by Flogas Britain Limited. It is therefore a local fuel supply and delivery requirement tied to the depot’s installed tank, rather than a general gas distribution contract. The procurement also includes gas distribution and related services. The named delivery point is the Stonegravels depot; the contract description gives its postcode as S41 7LG.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Flogas Britain Limited. Derbyshire County Council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 5 October 2026 and runs from 21 October 2026 to 20 October 2027, with an option to extend for a further 12 months, up to 20 October 2028. The contract value is £10,000 excluding VAT, or £12,000 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The procurement was a single lot. The published outcome identifies the supplier and the contract value; no award evaluation criteria are set out.

For suppliers considering comparable propane requirements from Derbyshire County Council, this purchase shows demand for bulk fuel delivered to a specific highways depot and compatible with an existing, supplier-owned storage tank. A credible competitor would need to supply propane reliably to Stonegravels and demonstrate that it can work with the depot’s installed tank arrangements. The incumbent’s ownership of the tank was central to the stated delivery requirement, so competing for similar work would depend on being able to offer an equivalent practical supply arrangement, rather than fuel alone. The council used a direct award without competition for this purchase; suppliers should therefore recognise that the selected provider’s existing site infrastructure was a relevant commercial advantage for this particular requirement.
