Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The University of Worcester buys collection, treatment and safe recycling or disposal of hazardous waste generated across its sites, in line with waste and recycling legislation. The service covers a range of hazardous waste types and is classified as hazardous waste services (CPV 90520000). Delivery is associated with the University’s Worcester site. The requirement was run as a mini-competition under the London Universities Purchasing Consortium’s Waste Management Services framework, Lot 3.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Labwaste Limited on 22 September 2026. The awarded value is £3,958.08. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2028. The University used a restricted procedure, conducting a mini-competition under an existing framework. The requirement was not divided into further lots in the published award information. The award records a completed process; its stated scope is collection, treatment and disposal of hazardous waste, with safe recycling or disposal and compliance with applicable legislation as the purpose. The requirement was presented as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

For suppliers competing for this University’s future hazardous-waste requirement, credibility will depend on being able to collect, treat and dispose of a range of hazardous waste safely, while meeting applicable waste and recycling legislation. The awarded supplier provides a benchmark for a focused institutional service rather than a broad waste-management contract: the work is associated with the University’s sites and was procured through a mini-competition within a purchasing framework. Competitors should be prepared to demonstrate dependable collection and compliant downstream treatment or disposal across the relevant waste streams. The buyer marked the requirement as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises, indicating that the expected delivery profile favours suppliers able to meet the scale and operational requirements of the service.
