Summary of the contracting process

The City & County of Swansea procured a green and garden waste service covering collection, haulage and treatment at a composting facility or facilities identified by the supplier. The supplier is responsible for processing the material to maximise composting into an end-use product and minimise residual waste, then finding markets or sectors for that product. The work must comply with relevant legislation and the waste resource framework and PAS100. This is a waste management service, classified under CPV 90500000. Delivery is in Swansea, Wales.

The procurement was completed through an open procedure, with one lot. Griffiths Waste Management Ltd was awarded the contract on 7 August 2026, and the contract was signed on 24 August 2026. The awarded value is £4,150,000 excluding VAT (£4,980,000 including VAT). The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 1 September 2027, with an extension option of up to 60 months. Price carried 70% of the evaluation weighting and quality 30%; quality covered service delivery, contract monitoring and communication, contingency planning, recycling rate and use of the finished product. Two bids were received, both from SMEs. The lot was identified as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises.

For suppliers competing for this buyer’s future green and garden waste requirement, credibility depends on being able to collect and haul the waste and operate or secure access to a composting facility with proven, robust processing capability and capacity. The service must maximise composting into a usable end product while keeping residual waste to a minimum. Suppliers also need to identify viable end markets or sectors for the compost, and demonstrate compliance with applicable legislation, the waste resource framework and PAS100. The evaluation gave most weight to price, but placed meaningful emphasis on service delivery, monitoring and communication, contingency planning, recycling performance and the use of the final product. The award to an SME and the stated SME suitability indicate that this scale of service has been delivered by a smaller supplier.
