THE HIGHLAND COUNCIL

This public procurement record has 2 releases in its history.

Summary of the contracting process

The Highland Council has completed the tender process for the Waste Management Services - Lots 3a and 3b in Lochaber, focusing on the receipt, transfer, transport, treatment, and disposal of municipal solid waste and mixed recyclables. This procurement was initiated on 5 September 2019 and awarded on 13 May 2019. It falls under the 'services' category and utilised a limited procurement method without prior publication of a call for competition due to the lack of existing waste transfer facilities in the area. The contract value amounts to £51,028,491, with a contract expiry date set for 31 December 2020.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the waste management sector, particularly those capable of establishing or operating waste transfer stations. Given the technical requirements and the need for local facilities, large-scale suppliers who can navigate planning permissions and invest in infrastructure will be well-suited to compete. Businesses focusing on sustainable waste solutions and recycling services may also find this contract appealing, as the growing demand for effective waste management aligns with environmental goals.

Lot Information

Lot 1

Waste Management Services for Lot 3a - Lochaber Receipt, transfer, transport, treatment and/or disposal of residual element of Municipal Solid Waste from Lochaber and Lot 3b - Lochaber Receipt, transfer and transport of mixed dry recyclables from Lochaber to Council identified treatment facility

Procurement Information

Any supplier wishing to provide this service would have to operate a waste transfer station at the Lot locations - currently no other suppliers operate suitable waste transfer facilities in these areas therefore any supplier wishing to provide this service would have to build the facility. Taking into account the short duration of the proposed contract (31/12/20), it is not considered that suppliers would incur expense in planning applications and the construction of a facility as they would be unable to make a return on investment during the short length of this contract - without significantly increasing their pricing. In addition, any supplier wishing to provide this service would have to apply for planning permission in order to build this facility which is unlikely to happen prior to the end of 30/9/19. No pending planning permission applications in these areas to build a waste transfer facility has been submitted.
