Summary of the contracting process

Redditch Borough Council procured food waste caddies, categorised as waste and rubbish containers and bins (CPV 34928480). The requirement sits within the NEPO224 framework for heavy goods and specialist vehicles, including waste skips, containers and bins. The goods are for delivery in England, United Kingdom. This is a supply opportunity rather than a service or construction contract, focused on providing containers for the council’s food-waste collection arrangements. The buying organisation is Redditch Borough Council, based in Redditch. The procurement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so businesses with relevant manufacturing, distribution or supply capability for food-waste caddies and comparable waste containers are the closest fit.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a direct award under the NEPO224 framework. The award decision was made on 21 July 2026. IPL Plastics (UK) Ltd was selected as supplier for an awarded value of £245,000 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract runs from 22 July 2026 to 23 July 2029. The tender submission deadline was 21 July 2026 at 23:59. The procurement was for goods and had a single requirement covering the food waste caddies. The award is active, and the contract period attached to the award matches the period specified for the procurement. Evaluation was therefore conducted through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender.

This award shows established demand from Redditch Borough Council for food-waste caddies and related waste containers, using a recognised framework and direct-award route. Businesses most likely to compete credibly when this requirement returns are manufacturers, distributors and specialist suppliers able to provide durable food-waste caddies at council scale, with reliable delivery to England and the operational capacity to support waste-collection programmes. SME suitability indicates that smaller firms can be relevant where they can demonstrate dependable production or sourcing, consistent product quality and fulfilment capability. Experience supplying bins, containers or other equipment for local-authority waste services would help a competitor show that it understands public-sector requirements and can deliver a repeatable supply arrangement.
