Summary of the contracting process

Bristol Waste Company is procuring wood waste collection and treatment services on behalf of Bristol City Council. The requirement covers collecting wood waste from three Bristol Waste Company operating sites and transporting it for processing at the supplier’s own premises. This is a waste management and resource treatment service, including refuse and waste-related services (CPV 90500000). Bristol Waste Company is the buyer and the service is delivered across Bristol, with treatment carried out at the successful supplier’s facilities. The requirement supports the authority’s responsibilities as a waste collection and treatment organisation. Suppliers therefore need to provide an end-to-end service covering site collections, logistics, compliant treatment and the management of wood waste through to processing.

The procurement is complete and was run as a single-lot open procedure. Four bids were received and four reached the final stage; two final-stage bidders were SMEs. The award was made on 29 June 2026 to South West Wood Products Limited, for £1,190,000 excluding VAT (£1,428,000 gross). The awarded contract period is 1 August 2026 to 30 June 2028, with a 12-month renewal option extending the maximum period to 30 June 2029. The original tender estimated the lot at £720,000 gross. The tender closing deadline was 10 April 2026 at 16:00, enquiries closed on 23 March 2026 at 17:00, and the award decision period ended on 18 May 2026. Evaluation weighted quality of service at 60%, price at 30% and sustainability at 10%.

This award demonstrates substantial demand for a combined wood waste collection and treatment service from Bristol Waste Company, with the work requiring operational coverage of three collection sites and processing capacity at the supplier’s premises. A credible future competitor would need dependable waste collection vehicles, site scheduling and logistics, together with suitable facilities and processes for receiving, sorting and treating wood waste. Evidence of consistent service quality is particularly important because quality of service was the dominant evaluation consideration. Suppliers should also be able to demonstrate credible sustainability performance and competitive pricing. The outcome shows that an SME can compete successfully for this requirement, while the four final-stage bids indicate a competitive market of established waste and treatment operators.
