Summary of the contracting process

The NHS London Procurement Partnership, hosted by Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, is embarking on a procurement journey to establish a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for waste management services, covering refuse, sewage, and environmental services across the UK. This process aims to facilitate the collection, transportation, treatment, recycling, processing, and disposal of various healthcare and public sector waste streams, including domestic and hazardous materials. The DPS, valued at £2 billion, will run until 18th November 2028, with operations spread across England and its regions. The open procedure allows for electronic and written submissions via the Health Atamis platform, with key dates including bid submissions, bid opening, and award periods commencing from 18th November 2021.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in waste management services. Companies with expertise in refuse collection, hazardous waste disposal, and recycling can offer tailored services and compete in various lots that address specific waste types and integrated management solutions. The NHS LPP plans to expand and refine its offerings throughout the DPS's lifespan, ensuring a responsive approach to evolving market and membership needs. Enterprises looking to broaden their influence in the healthcare sector and specialise in innovative waste management solutions are particularly well-suited to engage with this expansive procurement initiative.
