Summary of the contracting process

The Aberdeen City Council is planning to extend its existing Waste Management Services contract, valued at £28 million, which covers the operation of Household Waste Recycling Centres, a Materials Recycling Facility, and waste management services. This procurement is currently in the planning stage, with a future notice anticipated on 30 June 2022. The contract extension, subject to committee approval, is proposed for the period from September 2025 to March 2029, allowing the Council to assess the impact of upcoming legislative changes affecting waste composition and management.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses involved in waste management, recycling, and environmental services to expand their operations or partnerships. Companies that specialise in refuse and waste-related services, including recycling facilities and waste transfer stations, would be well-positioned to compete. The contract's focus on adapting to legislative impacts suggests that innovative solutions and adaptability will be key factors for prospective bidders looking to align their services with the evolving needs of Aberdeen City Council.

Lot Information

Lot 1

Subject to committee approval the council plans to Award a three and a half year Contract extension, to Suez Recycling Recovery UK Ltd, for its existing Waste Management Services Contract, for the period Sept 2025 to March 2029. Subject to committee approval the council plans to Award a three and a half year Contract extension, to Suez Recycling Recovery UK Ltd, for its existing Waste Management Contract, for the period Sept 2025 to March 2029. The contract currently has no further options to extend so the proposed extension shall take the contract beyond its expected expiry date. The extension will enable the Council to measure and assess the impact of the significant legislative and policy initiatives which will be implemented by the Scottish and UK Governments over the forthcoming years (including the Deposit Return scheme (DRS) and Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR)), on the Council's waste services and infrastructure and enable it to better specify the Council's future requirements. This in turn will ensure any future tender exercise reflects this. The extension shall be awarded on the grounds of: 1."Unforeseen circumstances" and 2. "Non Substantial Variation" "Unforeseen circumstances" - impending significant legislative and policy initiatives (including the Deposit Return Scheme and Extended Producer Responsibility). The impact of its implementation now, is unknown. It will likely have a significant impact on Council's recycling waste (composition/volume) collected & sent for processing together with as yet unknown effects on particular waste streams such as bulky waste, with concomitant effects on residual waste composition and volume. Additional information: "Non substantial Variation" - The work to be completed under the variation is not substantially different to the existing contract.
