UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Bridgend County Borough Council is seeking a suitably experienced and qualified partner to maintain, refurbish and replace skips and containers used at its Community Recycling Centres. The requirement covers the ongoing management of these refuse skips and containers, with the aim of maximising their usage and extending their working life. The goods and associated maintenance services will be delivered across the Bridgend County Borough in Wales. This is primarily a refuse-container supply and maintenance opportunity, suitable for businesses that can provide, inspect, repair, refurbish and replace skips and containers for recycling and waste-management sites. The council is the public-sector buyer and the requirement is being procured as a single package rather than separate lots. The opportunity is above the relevant procurement threshold and is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement.

The process has reached tender: the council invited offers through an open procedure. The deadline for enquiries was 21 September 2026 at 5pm, and the deadline for tender submissions is 29 September 2026 at noon. Offers were to be submitted electronically through the council’s e-tendering system, in English. The contract is scheduled to run from 20 October 2026 to 20 October 2031, with renewal permitted; the stated maximum extent date is 15 March 2031. The estimated value is £800,000 excluding VAT, or £960,000 including VAT. The council expected to complete evaluation and award by 9 October 2026. Evaluation is based on total bid price for all elements, weighted 70%, and technical method statement answers, weighted 30%.

This opportunity suits an SME or larger specialist supplier with proven experience maintaining, refurbishing and replacing commercial skips and waste containers. Bidders need the technical capability to manage an ongoing service across multiple Community Recycling Centres, diagnose container defects, plan repairs, carry out refurbishment and supply suitable replacement units. Operational capacity will be important: the partner must support the continued availability and effective use of the council’s container fleet rather than provide a one-off delivery. Relevant experience in waste, recycling, environmental services, container hire, fabrication, engineering maintenance or asset refurbishment would be directly applicable. Suppliers should be able to answer technical method statement questions clearly and price the full range of required elements. The requirement is explicitly suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, creating scope for specialist firms and delivery partnerships.
