The two-year deal will see Doncasters' logo appear on the back of the Rams' shirts and shorts for all league and cup competitions during the 2010/11 and 2011/12 seasons.
Bill Ellis, chief executive officer of Doncasters Group, said: "We’re delighted to be teaming up with Derby County and look forward to helping the club achieve its ambitions over the coming seasons.
“Football and engineering are both strong parts of our local heritage and have a significant role to play in all our futures."
