Summary of the contracting process

Bangor University has initiated a procurement process for waste management services across its campuses, including locations in Bangor, Menai Bridge, Mona, Abergwyngregyn, and Wrexham. As the buying organisation, Bangor University is seeking contractors capable of comprehensive waste collection, disposal, and treatment services. This tender falls under the industry category of sewage, refuse, cleaning, and environmental services, aligning with the university's commitment to sustainable waste practices. The process is currently at the tender stage, with key stages ending from enquiry period on 22 April 2026, submission by 1 May 2026, to the award period by 15 May 2026. The procurement follows an open procedure, allowing broad participation, with future engagement from successful bidders anticipated from August 2026 for a contract period until August 2029, with potential renewals extending to 2031.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in environmental services such as waste management, recycling, and sustainable practices. The focus on two pricing scenarios—simple waste collection and pre-sorting of general waste—enables businesses with innovative waste management solutions to showcase their capabilities, potentially leading to long-term partnerships that align with Bangor University's sustainability objectives. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), alongside voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), are particularly suitable, given the procurement's allowance for such organisations, thus fostering economic growth within this sector. Furthermore, the contract offers possibilities for businesses to demonstrate their technical competence alongside competitive pricing, positioning themselves as leading players in managing university-level waste services efficiently and responsibly.
