UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Ards and North Down Borough Council is procuring services for the loading, transport and treatment of container glass collected within the borough. The requirement covers the complete movement and processing chain, including haulage from collection points, acceptance at suitable facilities, and treatment of the glass. It is a waste management and recycling opportunity, classified under refuse recycling, disposal and treatment, and wider waste-related services. The work is to be delivered in the Ards and North Down Borough in Northern Ireland. Suppliers should therefore be able to coordinate collection logistics with compliant glass-processing operations and provide clear evidence that their facilities and transport arrangements can support the Council’s operational requirements.

The procurement has reached tender: the Council invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission via etendersni.gov.uk. Questions and tenders had to be submitted by 11 September 2026 at 12:00 noon. The intended award decision period ends on 16 October 2026 at 23:59. The single contract is scheduled to run from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2028, with an option for three further 12-month extensions, potentially ending on 31 October 2031, subject to performance and mutual agreement. Its estimated maximum value is £350,000 excluding VAT (£420,000 including VAT). Evaluation is based on 70% rebate or cost and 30% quality, covering loading and haulage, facilities, waste acceptance, processing, and recording and reporting.

This opportunity suits waste management and recycling contractors able to provide an integrated loading, haulage and glass-treatment service rather than separate transport or processing alone. Strong bidders will have suitable facilities, the relevant licences and regulatory consents, and robust waste acceptance and processing arrangements. The Council will look for practical service delivery plans covering transport logistics, facility operations, processing methods, and the recording and reporting of activity. Applicants must demonstrate relevant minimum experience, appropriate insurance, health and safety compliance, and the capacity to manage the required operational service. They must also provide information on regulatory enforcement history and a regulatory consent statement. Commercial proposals should address either the rebate available to the Council or the cost of the service.
