Derby College Group, in short
Who does Derby College Group award contracts to?
Across 7 contracts recorded since 2021, Derby College Group has used 18 different suppliers. The most frequent are Axis Recruitment Limited (2 contracts), Blue Arrow LTD (2 contracts), Dovetail and Slate Limited (2 contracts).
What does Derby College Group buy?
Its most active procurement categories are business and professional services, education and training, architecture and engineering. Categories are derived from the CPV codes published on each award notice.
When do Derby College Group contracts come up for renewal?
1 contract awarded by Derby College Group has an end date within the next 18 months, the earliest on 31 Jul 2027. End dates come from the original award notices, so they are visible well before any re-tender is advertised.
How much does Derby College Group spend on contracts?
The median published contract value is £153k, across the 3 contracts that state a value. Published values are not added up here: a framework's value is a ceiling shared by every supplier on it, and the same value is often repeated across lots, so adding them up would overstate what is spent.
How can I be alerted to new Derby College Group tenders?
Tender Radar monitors Find a Tender, Contracts Finder, Public Contracts Scotland and Sell2Wales each weekday morning and can score every new Derby College Group notice against your organisation's profile, delivering the relevant ones before 9am alongside their contracts approaching renewal.

How these figures are worked out
- The last 12 months: award notices published from 9 November 2025 to 8 November 2026, each contract counted once however many suppliers or rows it has. The same window is used everywhere on this page.
- Took on 8 new suppliers in the last 12 months: Suppliers named on a contract it awarded and published since 9 November 2025, and on none before. Counted by organisation, not by spelling.
- Most recent award: recorded 20 Jul 2026 (4 months ago).
- Values: value figures cover the 3 of 7 contracts where a value was published. Values are never added up: framework ceilings and values repeated across lots would make a total meaningless.
- Since 2021: totals count contracts by award date from January 2021, and suppliers by organisation rather than by spelling.
