| supplier not published | — | 6 Aug 2026 | CancelledSouth Derbyshire District Council remains committed to delivering a procurement process that provides clarity for suppliers and secures the best possible outcomes for residents and stakeholders. Having reviewed the current tender exercise, the Council has concluded that it is in the best interests of all parties to discontinue the procurement at this stage. This will enable further consideration of the Council's requirements and the procurement strategy before any future opportunity is progressed. The Council appreciates the interest shown by suppliers and recognises the time and effort invested in engaging with the tender process. The Council will consider the most appropriate way forward and, where relevant, will communicate any future procurement opportunities through the appropriate channels. |
