Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the contract titled "Waste Management Services UHI Moray" has reached the award stage. Managed by UHI Moray, a body governed by public law in the education sector located in Elgin, this process utilised an open procedure method under the APUC Framework EFM 1055AP. The main category of this procurement is services, specifically focusing on waste management. The contract was signed on 1st May 2025, amounting to £210,000 GBP, and involves a lot with a two-year initial term, plus three optional one-year extensions. The buyer, UHI Moray, awarded the contract to Biffa Waste Services, a large supplier based in Bonnyrigg, UK.

Firms in the waste management industry, especially large entities with the capability to service educational institutions, would be suited to compete for similar contracts in the future. The use of APUC frameworks suggests a structured and competitive procurement environment that could open further avenues for businesses capable of meeting the service requirements in the public sector within the UK, particularly in Scotland's education-related procurements.
