UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

ORE Catapult is seeking suppliers for a multi-supplier waste management and recycling framework covering nine service areas: secure shredding and disposal of confidential materials; waste electrical and electronic equipment; liquid waste disposal; dry mixed recycling; skip hire; hazardous waste; metal; chemical and oil spill response; and general waste. The requirement is for waste-related services, classified under CPV 90500000. Suppliers may be relevant to one or more specialist areas rather than the full range. Services will be delivered in the United Kingdom, with the listed requirements covering sites in several UK locations. The framework is being bought by ORE Catapult, a public undertaking, for waste collection, treatment, recycling, disposal and incident-response services across its operational requirements.

The process has reached tender: ORE Catapult invited offers through an open procedure. It is a closed, multi-supplier framework with contracts awarded either with or without reopening competition. The total gross value is £270,000, with each of the nine lots valued at £30,000 gross. Bids and enquiries were due by 21 September 2026 at 14:00. The award decision was due by 2 October 2026 at 23:59. Each lot has an initial contract period from 27 October 2026 to 26 October 2028, with an option to extend for up to a further 24 months, ending no later than 26 October 2030. Evaluation is based on commercial and technical criteria: either 40% commercial and 60% technical, or 30% commercial and 70% technical, depending on the lot. Economic and technical selection requirements apply.

This opportunity suits waste management, recycling, environmental services and specialist disposal businesses that can provide one or more of the nine lot services. Relevant suppliers include secure document destruction operators, WEEE recyclers, liquid and hazardous waste specialists, dry mixed recycling and general waste contractors, skip hire providers, metal recyclers, and companies able to respond to chemical or oil spills. Each lot is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and the multi-supplier framework allows businesses to compete for a defined service area rather than provide every waste service. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate the economic and technical capability required for their chosen lot and deliver reliably across the United Kingdom. Technical quality carries greater weight than commercial pricing on the liquid waste, hazardous waste, metal and chemical and oil spill lots.
