        "description": "This tender is to establish a Contract for services to collect, transport and dispose of wastes from human and/or animal healthcare and/or related research. The objectives of the Contract are to: * Provide a compliant, resilient, efficient, and cost-effective service , undertaking, and managing the safe collection, handling, transport, and disposal of segregated wastes from University sites to the point of final disposal. * Achieve zero to landfill on all waste streams, including treated and non-hazardous waste. * Reduce the carbon footprint of the University's waste activities by moving waste up the Waste Hierarchy. * Provide monthly accurate University specific data on waste weights, uplifts, categories, transport miles, treatment type and associated CO2 equivalent emissions. * Support the University to train staff in 'best practice' waste management principles, to reduce waste and improve segregation. * Seek to continually improve the service delivered and develop sustainable waste minimisation, reuse, and recycling opportunities wherever possible. * Maintain and continually demonstrate full compliance with all regulatory requirements and applicable codes of practice. The awarded contract will focus on logistical and service improvements, minimisation in environmental impact and movement up the Waste Hierarchy as well as cost efficiency. The desired services are presented and will be awarded according to Lots. Each Lot is based around the characteristics, collection requirements or potential outcomes of the waste streams in question. Lots will be awarded exclusively to the successful Provider; however, it is not possible or desirable to guarantee tonnages within each Lot. Providers may tender for more than one Lot: * Lot 1 - Hazardous healthcare and related research wastes requiring treatment prior to disposal (AT) or High Temperature Incineration (HTI) * Lot 2 - Non-Hazardous Healthcare and Related Research Wastes (appropriate for e.g., municipal waste to energy disposal * Lot 3 - Chemically Contaminated Laboratory Waste from Research and Teaching Contracts will be awarded for a period of 3 years (36 months) with an option for a further two, one-year (12 month) extensions at the agreement of both parties.",
