Summary of the contracting process

Hertfordshire County Council procured services to receive, transport, treat and dispose of street-sweeping arisings from councils across Hertfordshire. The requirement covers treatment for Broxbourne, Dacorum, East Hertfordshire, Hertsmere, St Albans, Stevenage, Three Rivers and Watford, with the procurement also structured to cover North Hertfordshire and Welwyn Hatfield. The work is refuse disposal and treatment (CPV 90510000), delivered across the relevant borough and district council areas in Hertfordshire. The buying organisation is Hertfordshire County Council, acting for the participating local authorities. The requirement concerns operational waste treatment rather than general street-cleaning services, and is suited to providers with suitable waste-processing and disposal infrastructure serving Hertfordshire.

The procurement is complete and awarded following an open procedure. Biffa Waste Services Limited was awarded lots 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8 and 9 on 5 March 2026; lots 5 and 10, covering North Hertfordshire and Welwyn Hatfield, were not awarded. The awarded lots are valued individually at £198,473, £424,264, £250,623, £283,311, £457,127, £55,760, £171,092 and £173,456 net respectively, with the published gross values ranging from £66,912 to £548,553. The awarded contract period is 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2030, with an option to extend by up to one year. Price carried 70% of the evaluation and quality 30%. The contract was signed on 28 August 2026 and is recorded as active. A proposed 28 September 2026 novation would transfer it to Biffa Landfill Solutions Limited without other contractual changes.

This award demonstrates recurring demand from Hertfordshire councils for outsourced treatment of street-sweeping waste across multiple local authority areas. A credible future competitor would need proven waste-treatment and disposal capacity, suitable haulage arrangements and the ability to receive loads directly from mechanical street sweepers. The selection requirements included economic and financial standing, relevant experience supported by a case study, appropriate insurance, UK right-to-work compliance, and evidence of treatment and disposal facilities. Strong performance would also depend on accurate data and load assessment, effective mobilisation and contract management, clear treatment and output-material arrangements, and contingency and disaster-recovery planning. The quality assessment also considered sustainability and social value. Providers able to operate reliably across several Hertfordshire districts, manage different waste inputs and demonstrate resilient, compliant processes would be well placed when comparable requirements return.
