Summary of the contracting process

Staffordshire County Council procured residual waste disposal services for East Staffordshire Borough Council. The requirement was to divert residual waste to Willshees Waste & Recycling Limited, covering the handling and disposal of refuse and waste. It is a service contract rather than a goods or construction opportunity. The council is the buying organisation and Willshees, based in Burton-on-Trent, was the selected supplier. The requirement concerns residual waste generated in East Staffordshire and delivered for disposal through the contracted waste service. The relevant service classification is CPV 90500000, refuse and waste-related services. The procurement comprised one completed lot, covering the full residual waste disposal requirement.

This procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. Staffordshire County Council used a selective procedure, with the award made below threshold under a framework; the call-off was not competitive. Willshees Waste & Recycling Limited was awarded the single lot. The contract was signed on 7 August 2026 and runs from 10 August 2026 to 6 September 2026. Its value is £113,775 excluding VAT, or £136,530 including VAT. The tender status and lot status are complete, while the award and contract status are active. The published information records the requirement as a framework award for residual waste disposal services. No separate award date or detailed scoring basis is provided in the procurement information.

This award shows that Staffordshire County Council uses a framework route for short-term residual waste disposal supporting East Staffordshire Borough Council. Competitors seeking similar work would need operational capability in receiving, managing and disposing of residual waste, with suitable waste-sector facilities, transport arrangements and regulatory compliance. The selected supplier was an SME waste and recycling business, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a specialist operator rather than only a large national contractor. Credibility for a future requirement would depend on demonstrating reliable capacity for the required waste volumes, continuity of service, compliant disposal arrangements and experience of working with local authorities. Suppliers should also understand framework call-off processes and the council’s requirements for diversion and disposal of residual waste.
