Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process undertaken by Lewes District Council involves the award for the treatment and disposal of domestic garden waste within the Refuse and waste related services industry category. The awarded contract, designated for Lewes in East Sussex, started on 1st May 2025 and will continue until 30th April 2028. The contract was awarded to KPS Composting Services Ltd following an open procurement procedure, indicating a competitive tendering phase. The garden waste service, holding approximately 10,345 subscribers, requires the contractor to allow direct deliveries by the Council’s collection vehicles, handle the ongoing haulage, and manage the final disposal including residue treatment. Key contact for the Lewes District Council is James White, reachable at james.white@lewes-eastbourne.gov.uk.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities specifically for companies that specialise in waste management services, particularly those adept in composting or organic waste disposal. SMEs are encouraged to consider this sector due to the council's welcoming approach towards smaller enterprises. Furthermore, businesses familiar with handling large-scale waste disposal within both local and international settings can capture this opportunity to expand their reach. This contract could prove valuable for organisations with robust logistics capabilities to manage direct waste delivery and disposal efficiently. The open procurement method ensures a fair competition, allowing well-suited businesses to showcase their services and potentially secure long-term partnerships with the council.
