Summary of the contracting process

Kent County Council (KCC) has awarded a contract for the processing of textiles and shoes to be disposed of at all 19 Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs) across Kent. The procurement process, which initially sought tenders but resulted in a direct award due to a lack of suitable submissions, concluded with the contract being awarded to L W Sait and Sons LLP, an SME. The contract is valued at £140,000 and will run from 18th December 2024 to 17th December 2025, with an option to extend for an additional 12 months. This falls under the industry category of "Textile fabrics and related items" (CPV 19200000) and is geographically located in the South East, United Kingdom.

This tender offers significant opportunities for growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) operating within the waste management and textile recycling sectors. Businesses with expertise in environmental services, especially those dealing with the logistics and processing of household waste materials, are well-suited to compete for such contracts. The direct award nature of this procurement indicates a potential for similar future opportunities, providing a foothold for SMEs looking to expand their services across public sector contracts within the region.
