Summary of the contracting process

Hull City Council procured IT hardware recycling and disposal services for end-of-life devices. The work concerns the collection and recycling or disposal of the council’s retired IT equipment, within the wider field of computer-related and waste services. Delivery is in Hull. The council used its YPO framework for sustainable hardware, asset recycling and data destruction, specifically the framework category covering IT asset recycling and destruction. The requirement was for one service contract. This is a council requirement for managing obsolete IT hardware rather than a purchase of new equipment.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to S2S Electronics Ltd, with three bids received. The council selected the supplier through a further competition under the YPO framework, using a limited procedure without a separate open competition. The award date was not reported; the contract was signed on 19 October 2026. The signed contract value is £30,540. The service was described as cost-neutral to the council, so the estimated value should not be read as a commitment to buy services at a particular value. The intended contract period is four years, with an estimated start in October 2026. Evaluation weighted quality, including social value, at 60% and price at 40%.

This award shows demand from Hull City Council for a supplier able to handle end-of-life IT hardware through recycling and disposal, using the council’s existing framework route. A future competitor would need to be eligible to compete through the relevant YPO framework category for IT asset recycling and destruction, and able to deliver the service in Hull. The selected provider was a small or medium-sized business, and one of the three bidders was an SME, showing that this requirement was not limited to large suppliers. To be credible, suppliers should be able to demonstrate strong service quality and social value alongside competitive pricing, since quality carried greater evaluation weight than price. The cost-neutral model also means the commercial case depends on delivering the service without a straightforward purchase spend by the council.
