Derbyshire County Council (The Council) are seeking to establish a Contract for the Supply of Owner Operated Vacuum Excavator
The Contract will cover a variety of operated vacuum excavation services, supplied with appropriately qualified operators. The services may be required county wide within the Council's jurisdiction.
The Contract will be structured into 4 Lots:
Lot 1 - 16t Vacuum Suction Excavator
Lot 2 - 18t Vacuum Suction Excavator
Lot 3 - 26t Vacuum Suction Excavator
Lot 4 - 32t Vacuum Suction Excavator
The proposed Contract is expected to commence on April 2026 with an initial term of 1 year, with the option to extend for a further three 12-month periods, up to a maximum of 4 years (1+1+1+1).
