Summary of the contracting process

The Waste and Resources Action Programme (WRAP) commissioned a waste composition analysis for Bradford Metropolitan City Council. The work examines two waste streams: residual waste and dry mixed recycling; garden and food waste are excluded. It requires a statistically sound, single-phase analysis. WRAP will use the results to provide Bradford Council with data and insights to help develop targeted communications that improve the quality and quantity of recycling. This is waste analysis services (CPV 79723000), delivered for Bradford Metropolitan City Council in the United Kingdom. The procurement is a call-off from WRAP Framework 81, Waste Composition Analysis, Lot 4, and forms part of a wider programme of support for Bradford Council.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. WRAP selected Alfred H Knight, a small and medium-sized enterprise, for the single lot. The contract was signed on 2 October 2026 and runs from 12 October 2026 to 8 January 2027. Its gross value is £24,860. The call-off was made through WRAP’s Waste Composition Analysis framework; the stated procurement method is below threshold, with no further method detail. The requirement was evaluated for a single-phase analysis of residual waste and dry mixed recycling, with the results intended to inform recycling communications. The award is active, and the contract is active.

This award demonstrates demand from WRAP for waste composition analysis to support a local authority’s recycling policy and communications. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to design and carry out statistically sound sampling and analysis across residual waste and dry mixed recycling, and produce usable data and insights for the council’s communications work. The service needs to address waste-stream composition rather than general waste management, with the specified analysis excluding garden and food waste. Suppliers should be able to deliver a focused, single-phase assignment and provide evidence that their findings can guide efforts to improve recycling quality and quantity. The work was bought as a call-off from WRAP’s framework, so relevant experience within waste composition analysis and the ability to meet the framework’s requirements would be pertinent.
