Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by Wrexham County Borough Council involved an open tender for the collection and disposal of clinical and hazardous waste. The industry category is services, specifically focusing on clinical-waste collection and disposal, with the procurement location being Wrexham, United Kingdom. The procurement was conducted through an open, below-threshold competition, ensuring a fair selection process. This tender was marked as complete on 6 July 2026, with the contract commencing on the same date, running through 5 July 2028, and having the option for renewal until 2030. The project was awarded to Tradebe Healthcare National Limited, and the total contract value is £144,000 with gross amount. The primary legal basis for the procurement is UKPGA 2023/54, and it was carried out adhering to Welsh devolved regulations. Wrexham County Borough Council acted as the buyer, while the procurement stage covered both award and contract implementation phases.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in waste management and disposal, particularly those specialising in clinical and hazardous waste services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are well-suited to compete, especially for future tenders, given the Council's openness to such businesses in the bidding process. The contract not only offers substantial financial growth potential, given the gross contract amount of £144,000, but also provides a platform for companies to establish a foothold in the public sector market within Wales. Companies with robust service delivery capabilities and competitive pricing structures have the potential to leverage this opportunity for long-term growth and expansion in government contracts.
