Summary of the contracting process

Altus Education Partnership is seeking waste management services for the Trust and additional schools that may join it. The work is refuse collection, delivered in the North West of England. The buyer is based in Rochdale. The requirement is a single service covering the partnership and potential new member schools, so it is relevant to providers able to organise collections across multiple education sites and accommodate changes in the schools served.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure. The tender submission deadline was 27 November 2026 at 12:00, and the deadline for questions was 18 November 2026 at 12:00. The estimated award decision date was 4 January 2027. The contract period is scheduled from 20 March 2027 to 31 August 2030, with two optional 12-month extensions, up to 31 August 2032. The stated total estimated value is £260,000 gross. There is one lot. Evaluation is weighted 50% quality, 40% price and 10% social value.

This opportunity suits waste and refuse collection businesses with the operational capacity to serve a group of schools across the North West and to manage collections for additional schools joining the Trust. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate a strong service-quality offer and explain the social value they would deliver, as these together account for 60% of the evaluation. Price remains a substantial part of the assessment. The multi-year service, including potential extensions, may suit providers able to plan and maintain consistent collection operations over a sustained period. The published requirement does not set out specific accreditations, staff qualifications or minimum experience thresholds.
