Summary of the contracting process

The procurement is under the industry category "Refuse recycling services," with a tender period ending on 11th October 2024. The contract will start on 2nd December 2024 and run until 30th November 2026, with the option for a further two-year extension. The procurement process is at the tender stage, utilising an open procedure. The contract value ranges between GBP 100,000 and GBP 500,000, focusing on services within the East of England region. This opportunity seeks economic operators, particularly SMEs, to collect, handle, and process mixed glass and jars from Shrub End Depot, Colchester.

This tender provides an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in waste management and recycling services to expand their operations. Given the contract’s requirements and structure, it is ideally suited to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in refuse recycling. The stipulation that the contractor pays the council a fixed price per tonne and receives a percentage of income from Packaging Recovery Notes (PRNs) can create profit-sharing opportunities, further incentivising efficient and effective service delivery. Businesses engaged in recycling and sustainability are well-positioned to leverage this opportunity for substantial growth over the initial two-year contract period, with potential for a two-year extension.
