Summary of the contracting process

The Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) has completed a procurement process to extend existing contracts for Waste and Resource Management Services (WRMS) and Household Waste Recycling Centre Management Services (HWRCMS) with Suez Recycling and Recovery UK Ltd. This contract extension, originally awarded in 2019, will now continue until 31 May 2029, with an additional option to extend until 31 May 2034. This VEAT notice also includes updates and additional works to an energy-from-waste facility in Raikes Lane, Bolton, and upgrades for early acceptance of plastic materials. The main industry category is refuse and waste-related services, with all procurement activities conducted under limited procurement methods without prior publication, in accordance with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. Key dates include the original contract award on 31 May 2019, with the recent modification announced on 24 July 2024.

This extension and the associated modifications present a lucrative opportunity for businesses involved in waste management and recycling services to partner with Suez and GMCA. Companies specialising in energy-from-waste technologies, sub-contracting biowaste disposal, and plastic recycling systems would be particularly well-suited to benefit from these enhancements. By leveraging these new terms and maintenance works, businesses in the waste management sector can experience substantial growth and opportunities for ongoing projects and innovations within Greater Manchester. With substantial financial commitments from GMCA, businesses can expect secure and long-term contracts, enabling plans for sustainable growth and technological advancements in waste disposal and recycling services.

Lot Information

Waste and Resource Management Services (WRMS)

This is not a new contract opportunity, but rather a VEAT notice to inform the market that the contracting authority is seeking to extend its existing contract for waste and resource management services with Suez Recycling and Recovery UK Ltd which was originally awarded in 2019 and is due to expire on 31 May 2026. The extension period will be for an initial three year period until 31 May 2029 and then for a further five year period until 31 May 2034, exercising the existing options to extend under clauses 3.4.1 and 3.4.2 (respectively) of the waste and resource management services contract. In addition, it is proposed that additional works are undertaken to upgrade an existing energy from waste facility at Raikes Lane, Bolton. It is intended that the contracting authority will provide short term cashflow relief in respect of electricity revenue not realised during these additional works in consideration for a subsequent increase in share of electricity revenue until such relief has been earned back. It is further proposed that certain existing planned lifeycle works at the Raikes Lane facility are accelerated. Payment for rail haulage under a subcontract shall be varied from a fixed cost basis to a pass through cost basis. Further upgrades to an existing facility are planned to enable the early acceptance of plastic pots, tubs and trays. There is also a commitment from the contractor as to the terms on which contracts for the disposal of biowaste until the end of the proposed extension periods are established.

Household Waste Recycling Centre Management Services (HWRCMS)

This is not a new contract opportunity, but rather a VEAT notice to inform the market that the contracting authority is seeking to extend its existing contract for household waste recycling centre management services with Suez Recycling and Recovery UK Ltd which was originally awarded in 2019 and is due to expire on 31 May 2026. The extension period will be for an initial three year period until 31 May 2029 and then for a further five year period until 31 May 2034, exercising the existing options to extend under clauses 3.4.1 and 3.4.2 (respectively) of the waste and resource management services contract.

Procurement Information

This VEAT notice relates to modifications to the WRMS and HWRCMS contracts originally awarded in 2019 following a competitive award process. The contracting authority considers that the modification is permitted by Regulation 72(1)(e) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 as a modification which is not substantial. The proposed extensions of both contracts are pursuant to clear, precise and unequivocal review clauses (clause 3.4.1 and 3.4.2) of the original contracts. The contracting authority considers that the other proposed modifications to the WRMS contract as set out in section II.2.4 above are not substantial as they do not render the contract materially different in character or considerably extend its scope. The contracting authority also considers that there is no change in the economic balance of the contract in favour of the contractor as a net result of the proposed modifications. In addition, the contracting authority does not consider that if the WRMS contract had originally been advertised to include the proposed modifications that it would have attracted any different participants or candidates or that the outcome of the original procurement would have been any different.
