Summary of the contracting process

Thurrock Council has announced a planned procurement for the disposal of waste collected from the public realm, situated in Grays, United Kingdom. This pipeline notice indicates a future opportunity under the industry category of refuse and waste related services, with procurement planned through a competitive flexible procedure. The notice serves as a preliminary announcement for service providers, rather than a call for competition. Potential suppliers should note that the contract period is expected to start on 13th December 2026 and end on 12th December 2030, with possibilities for renewal extending to 2032. Businesses should prepare for further updates closer to 28th April 2026.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for enterprises specialising in waste management services, particularly those within the small and medium enterprise (SME) sector, given its suitability. The competitive flexible procedure offers a chance for innovative and adaptable service providers to tailor solutions that meet Thurrock Council's evolving requirements. Firms already operating in or looking to expand into the public sector can leverage this opportunity to establish a robust presence in the market. With a focus on sustainability and waste disposal, companies with capabilities in refuse management and public service delivery are well-suited to participate once the full bidding process is launched.
