Summary of the contracting process

Perth & Kinross Council bought one static compactor for paper and cardboard at Aberfeldy Recycling Centre. The equipment is intended to compress recyclable paper and cardboard at the centre. This is a goods purchase, specifically waste-compaction equipment, rather than a wider recycling or waste-management service. Delivery is associated with Aberfeldy, in Perth and Kinross. The procurement was run as a mini-competition among suppliers already pre-qualified on the Scotland Excel framework for the supply and delivery of waste-disposal equipment, under its compactor category. The requirement was for a single machine, so suppliers focused on supplying and delivering static compactors for recycling facilities are the closest fit.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. Personnel Hygiene Services Limited was selected as supplier for the single compactor requirement. The contract value is £21,950. The contract was signed on 15 June 2026; the award date and contract period are not stated in the available process details. The competition was conducted under an open procedure as a mini-competition within the Scotland Excel framework for waste-disposal equipment. There was one lot, covering the static compactor for Aberfeldy Recycling Centre. Two bids were received, both from small and medium-sized enterprises, and both were submitted electronically. The award is reported against the compactor requirement; no separate evaluation criteria or scoring basis are stated.

This award shows a focused requirement for a single static compactor at a local recycling centre, rather than a large equipment programme or an ongoing operating service. Suppliers best placed for a similar requirement are manufacturers, distributors or specialist waste-equipment businesses able to supply and deliver paper-and-cardboard compactors suited to recycling sites. Credibility depends on being able to meet the specific compaction use and provide equipment appropriate for a council facility. The route used here was a mini-competition restricted to suppliers pre-qualified on the relevant Scotland Excel framework category, so framework access is important for competing through this buyer’s chosen route. The participation of two SME bidders indicates that the requirement was competed by smaller suppliers as well as larger businesses; the selected supplier was also an SME.
