Planned Procurement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The British Red Cross is planning to initiate a tender for the supply and delivery of textile recycling banks, with an estimated budget of £250,000 for the 2018/2019 period. This contract is expected to commence on 1st January 2018 and will run for 24 months, covering areas in the South West and South of England, including the Isle of Man. The procurement process is currently in the planning stage, and interested suppliers are encouraged to register their interest by completing a Market Research Pro Forma before the deadline of 30th April 2017. The associated notice was published on 3rd April 2017.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in recycling equipment and related services, particularly those that are small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs). Companies specialising in the provision and maintenance of textile banks, as well as logistical support for collection and delivery, would be well-positioned to compete. Participation in this contract not only offers a chance to build a relationship with the British Red Cross but also contributes to a sustainable recycling initiative in the UK.
