Summary of the contracting process

Medway Council has engaged in a procurement process for "Street Scene Enforcement Services," aimed at addressing environmental issues such as littering and dog fouling, and enforcing Public Space Protection Orders. The process is classified under "Other community, social and personal services" in the UK region of South East England (UKJ41). The procurement method adopted was an open competition, below threshold, and culminated with the awarding of a contract to WASTE INVESTIGATIONS SUPPORT & ENFORCEMENT LTD. The award was confirmed on the 25th of February, 2026, with the contract active from the 19th of January, 2026 to the 18th of January, 2031, extendable by five additional years, a unique opportunity considering the service cost implication of nil to Medway Council, due to the beneficiary aspect of fixed penalty values.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses that specialise in enforcement services, especially those capable of supplying officers for high-profile patrols and participating in media campaigns. It is highly suited for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that are equipped to handle community service contracts and aim to grow through public sector partnerships. The contract promotes civic responsibility by targeting environmentally detrimental behaviours through enforcement actions, thus presenting a distinctive niche for firms in the environmental and social services industry seeking to expand their influence and service scope within the UK. Additionally, firms with expertise in conducting promotional and educational campaigns can leverage their capabilities to enhance public awareness and compliance regarding local environmental standards.
