OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Fife Council has awarded a contract for the provision of a plastic and can recycling service for a duration of six months, with the potential for a six-month extension if required. This contract, initiated under a limited procurement method without prior publication due to extreme market volatility, is situated in Glenrothes, Fife. The procurement process is currently complete, having been formalised on 21 December 2017, and is classified under environmental protection services, specifically focused on waste management.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses operating within the recycling and waste management sector, particularly those with experience in handling contamination issues or providing similar environmental services. As the procurement method was limited and specifically solicited, companies with a prior relationship with Fife Council, including Fife Resource Solutions, are likely to be well-suited to compete. This contract not only allows for business growth but also aligns with ongoing efforts to address the challenges in the recycling market.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Provision of plastic and can recycling service

Notice Description

Fife Council has awarded the provision of plastic and can recycling service for a period of six months, option of 6 month extension if required.

Lot Information

Lot 1

Uplift and recycling of plastic and can waste from Fife Council and Fife Resource Solutions (FRS).

Procurement Information

At present the recycling market is very volatile and it is not deemed to be appropriate to undertake a new tendering process at this time. There are several issues making the marketplace volatile, China withdrawing its services of taking the world's recycling, marketplace not willing to take ownership of waste in case they are unable to recycle it and Fife contamination levels are not attractive to the marketplace. The Council conducted market research and is currently undertaking an internal review to minimise contamination levels. Companies known to the Council and Fife Resource Solutions were contacted to appoint a Company willing to undertake the services for a 6 month trial period, with the option of an extension if deemed necessary.
