UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Cadent Gas Limited, located in Coventry, United Kingdom, is currently in the planning stage for a procurement process regarding Waste Management Services. The procurement aims to evaluate and enhance Cadent's waste management operations, set to commence once the existing contract expires in 2027. This process is focused on collecting market feedback to shape the future procurement strategy and evaluate the capacity and interest of suppliers for various delivery models. Interested parties should contact the provided email for Request for Information (RfI) documentation by the specified deadline of 11th August 2026. The procurement falls under the services category, specifically targeting refuse and waste-related services, and covers delivery in multiple UK regions including UKD, UKF, UKG, UKH, and UKI.

This procurement process presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in waste management services, particularly those capable of handling large-scale operations across multiple regions. Suppliers with expertise in collection, transportation, treatment, recycling, and disposal of both general and hazardous waste will find suitability in this tender. Additionally, companies demonstrating strong performance in sustainability initiatives and compliance reporting could leverage their capabilities for competitive advantage. The proposed structure allows for suppliers to bid for one or multiple geographical networks, potentially opening avenues for business growth and long-term collaboration with Cadent Gas Limited.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Waste Management Services

Notice Description

Cadent is reviewing its Waste Management Services arrangements ahead of the expiry of its current contract in 2027. As part of this process, Cadent is seeking market feedback to inform the development of its future procurement strategy and better understand supplier capability, capacity and appetite for different delivery models. The future requirement is expected to include the collection, transportation, treatment, recycling and disposal of a range of waste streams across Cadent's operational estate. Services are likely to cover general and hazardous waste management, recycling, skip hire, waste containers, compliance reporting, sustainability initiatives and carbon reporting. Cadent is considering a network-aligned lotting structure, whereby a single supplier would be appointed to each geographical network and be responsible for all waste management services within that region. Suppliers may have the opportunity to bid for one or multiple networks. Standardised KPIs, SLAs, reporting and compliance requirements would apply across all awarded suppliers. Through this engagement, Cadent is seeking views on the proposed operating model, supplier capacity to deliver regional or multi-regional services, and approaches to performance measurement, reporting and sustainability outcomes. Responses will be used solely to support market assessment and procurement strategy development and will not form part of any future tender evaluation. This is NOT a call for competition.
