Summary of the contracting process

The North Yorkshire Council is planning a public procurement process involving the service, repair, and maintenance of septic tanks and pumping stations at various locations in the United Kingdom. This procurement falls under the 'services' category, specifically handling treatment services of septic tanks and cesspools. The process is currently at the planning stage, with the procurement and tender details already published. Important dates include the end of the tender period on 10th August 2026 and the contract period spanning from 1st October 2026 to 30th September 2028. With a procurement method of an open procedure, the council seeks transparency and broad participation, supporting electronic submissions and intended for SMEs as suitable bidders.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specializing in waste management services, particularly firms that can provide comprehensive solutions within the specified budget of £402,600 gross. Companies capable of executing routine servicing, maintenance, and emergency repair work efficiently will find this contract well within their expertise. Moreover, North Yorkshire Council's future expansions, as part of its housing portfolio growth, signify potential additional demands for such services beyond the initial scope. The open nature of the procurement process and the council's focus on including SMEs create a conducive environment for smaller and medium-sized enterprises to compete for and potentially secure this contract, fostering business growth and establishing long-term relationships with a public authority.
