Summary of the contracting process

The TEC Partnership, a sub-central government public authority located in Grimsby, United Kingdom, has completed the procurement stage for a contract titled "Waste Management Collection Service". The awarded contract involves the provision of comprehensive waste management services across various sites, adapting to the evolving needs of the organisation. This open, below-threshold tender utilised an open competition process, with a total contract value of approximately £155,078.12, excluding taxes. The procurement pertained to refuse collection services, with an award date of 18 August 2025. The contract period is set to start on 1 September 2025 and end on 1 September 2027, with an option for renewal up to a third year.

This procurement presents various opportunities for businesses involved in waste management services, particularly those equipped to handle diverse waste streams including general, food, recyclables, and specialised categories like confidential and electronic waste. Large waste management companies, evidenced by Biffa's successful bid, would find such contracts within their operational capabilities due to the contract's broad scope and potentially varying site requirements. SMEs with proficiency in managing municipal waste and offering customised service agreements could also benefit by tapping into such public sector contracts, provided they meet the expectations and scale of service required.

During the term of this contract, sites may be reduced or increased. Decreases will come with no financial liability and any increases will be at the rates agreed within this contract. The successful tenderer will also be expected to provide the appropriate receptacles and collection service for the following: * Confidential waste * Timber * Plaster/plasterboard * Brick * Furniture * Electrical * Metal * Animal waste - including dog waste Ad-hoc Requests There may be occasions that services are requested over and above, or generally differing to those scheduled.
