Summary of the contracting process

Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust is procuring healthcare offensive-waste collection services for bulk collections and wheelie-bin collections at peripheral sites. The requirement concerns the collection of clinical waste from sites outside the Trust’s main hospital locations. It is a service contract managed by the Trust, based in Leeds, with delivery at the specified peripheral sites. The procurement covers one service lot and is intended for providers able to organise and carry out regular healthcare-waste collections, including both bulk waste movements and wheelie-bin services. The requirement is relevant to specialist clinical-waste contractors, healthcare-waste logistics businesses and established waste operators with suitable collection fleets and operating arrangements for multiple healthcare locations.

The process reached tender: the buyer invited offers through a selective competitive procedure with negotiation. The tender has one lot, and bids are evaluated on price. Offers may be submitted electronically or in writing through the buyer’s procurement portal, in English; variants are not allowed. The buyer set 1 August 2026 as the tender submission deadline. The contract period is 1 June 2026 to 31 May 2031, with bids required to remain valid for 1,800 days. The estimated total value is £1,500,000, all assigned to the single lot. The contract has no stated renewal or additional-purchase option. An amendment records that the wrong notice was published in error.

This opportunity suits suppliers with proven experience in healthcare or clinical-waste collection, particularly contractors handling offensive healthcare waste in bulk and servicing wheelie bins. Businesses should be able to plan collections across peripheral sites, provide reliable vehicles and equipment, and maintain operational capacity for a multi-year service arrangement. Relevant strengths include established waste-transfer and collection processes, trained drivers and operational staff, dependable scheduling, and the ability to manage recurring collections for healthcare premises. Specialist waste-sector compliance and documented experience of delivering similar clinical-waste services would place suppliers in a strong position. The requirement may also suit larger regional operators or capable specialist firms partnering to provide geographic coverage and resilience.
