Summary of the contracting process

East Riding of Yorkshire Council procured tanker services across East Riding of Yorkshire. The work covers the planned emptying and inspection of approximately 80 council-maintained septic tanks and treatment plants at operational sites and properties, including domestic properties, with occasional work at privately owned locations. Services include cesspit, well and pumping-station emptying, reactive emptying, blockage removal, minor maintenance to provide safe access and egress, inspections and out-of-hours response. This is a public-sector environmental and wastewater service requirement, combining sewage removal, sewage disposal, septic-tank emptying and biological-waste removal. The council is the buyer and the requirement is delivered at various locations within the county, including council-owned sites and properties.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through an open procedure. Ten bids were received, including ten from SMEs. Biomarsh Environmental Ltd was awarded the single lot on 29 July 2026, and the contract was signed on 17 August 2026. The awarded and contracted value is £420,000 excluding VAT (£504,000 including VAT). The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2029, with three optional annual extensions allowing a maximum end date of 31 August 2032. Tender submissions closed on 29 June 2026 at 11:00, enquiries closed on 22 June 2026, and the award standstill ended on 11 August 2026. Evaluation weighted price at 70% and quality at 30%. Economic and technical selection requirements applied.

This award demonstrates established council demand for a specialist tanker and wastewater response service in East Riding. Suppliers well placed for comparable future work would have the operational capacity to service around 80 dispersed septic tanks and treatment plants, including domestic and operational properties, and to respond to both planned and urgent requirements. Relevant capability includes vacuum tanker operations, septic-tank and cesspit emptying, sewage and biological-waste handling, blockage clearance, inspections, minor access-related maintenance and out-of-hours attendance. Competitors would need to evidence suitable technical and economic capacity, reliable coverage across the county, safe working practices and the ability to maintain service quality while managing recurring visits and reactive call-outs. The evaluation shows that a credible offer must combine competitive pricing with clear evidence of service quality.
