OJEU - F1 - Prior Information Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Dumfries and Galloway Council is initiating a procurement process for the treatment and management of various waste streams from Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs) and other sources, titled "Various Waste Streams from HWRCs and Other Sources". This project is categorised under the services industry and is located in Dumfries, Scotland. The procurement is currently in the planning stage, and interested parties are invited to express their interest before the contract notice is published, with a future notice date set for 18th July 2022. The total estimated value of the contract is £4.7 million, which indicates a significant opportunity for service providers in the waste management sector.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in waste management, recycling, and environmental services, particularly those with capabilities in processing specific types of waste such as organic, ferrous metals, bulky items, and hazardous materials like asbestos. Companies adept in providing innovative recycling solutions that align with the waste hierarchy could be especially well-positioned to compete. Given the diverse range of lots associated with this procurement, businesses carrying expertise in contingency waste management and those with suitable licensing and infrastructure within Dumfries and Galloway will find competitive advantage in this tendering process.

Treatment and recycling, recovery, or disposal of MBT plant Dust

This is the material from the dust extraction system of the MBT. The dust is contained in large bags sometimes referred to as "tonne bags" or "elephant bags".. The proposed lotting structure might be a subject to change.

Treatment and recycling, recovery, or disposal of MBT plant Belt Sweepings

This output from the MBT is the overspill from some of the transport belts in the refinements section of the MBT plant.

Contingency for Residual Waste reception and treatment

Contingency arrangements for the reception and treatment or landfill disposal of primarily residual waste, but possibly other non-hazardous waste streams. Normally for one or two days due to breakdown or plant maintenance at DGC's MBT plant. But on rare occasions planned plant maintenance may last for several weeks.
