These services are essential to the day-to-day operation of the county, supporting residents, businesses, and local communities. Across Buckinghamshire, an average of approximately 627,000 waste collections, serving 245,200 properties, are undertaken each week, highlighting the scale and criticality of the service. This project will seek to procure a suitably experienced provider capable of delivering consistent, high-quality services across the county, while supporting operational efficiency, resilience, and value for money. The Services include: 1) Waste Collection Services for a wide range of categories and frequency; 2) Provision of Street Cleansing Services; 3) Waste Transfer Services; 4) Materials Management Services; 5) Workshop Services; 6) Operation and maintenance of Depot Sites solely for the purpose of the Services; 7) Transportation of all Contract Waste to Nominated Delivery Points; 8) Provision and management of a Management Information System (MIS) including monitoring and reporting of Service performance information at intervals specified in the Contract; 9) Timely and accurate monitoring and reporting of Performance Standard Failures and Performance Deductions in accordance with the Performance Management Framework; 10) Provision of all other Services in the Specification, including any Changes agreed during the Services Period, in accordance with the Contract. The Council intends to award all services under a single integrated contract, rather than splitting up services across lots. The Council is currently working up the delivery timeline for this opportunity, using the Competitive Flexible Procedure (CFP), as follows: * Initial Tenders - development time / submission = 18/09/26 - 15/01/27 * Negotiations covering Technical, Legal and Financial elements = 22/03/27 - 02/07/27 * Final tenders - development time / submission = 26/07/27 - 01/10/27 * Contract award and Contract completion - 01/08/28 - 30/09/28 * Contract mobilisation - 01/10/28 - 30/09/29 (for the North) and 01/11/29 - 06/09/30 (for the South) * Contract commencement = 01/10/29 (for the North) and 07/09/30 (for the South). The split nature of the contract mobilisation is due to existing Waste Collection and Street Cleansing services currently being delivered though an in-house arrangement in the north of the county and through and outsourced contract (until September 2030) in the south of the county. The Council is considering an initial period of nine years for the initial term of the Contract, with the ability to extend by a further eight years, and with the ability for the Council to exercise a limited 12-month extension at the end of the initial or extended contract period to allow for unforeseen circumstances. The proposed extended contract period is eight years.", "items": [ { "id": "1", "additionalClassifications": [ { "scheme": "CPV", "id": "90500000", "description": "Refuse and waste related services" }, { "scheme": "CPV", "id": "90511000", "description": "Refuse collection services" }, { "scheme": "CPV", "id": "90511200", "description": "Household-refuse collection services" }, { "scheme": "CPV", "id": "90512000", "description": "Refuse transport services" }, { "scheme": "CPV", "id": "90514000", "description": "Refuse recycling services" }, { "scheme": "CPV", "id": "90600000", "description": "Cleaning and sanitation services in urban or rural areas, and related services" }, { "scheme": "CPV", "id": "90611000", "description": "Street-cleaning services" } ], "deliveryAddresses": [ { "region": "UKJ13", "country": "GB", "countryName": "United Kingdom" }, { "region": "UKJ13", "country": "GB", "countryName": "United Kingdom" } ], "relatedLot": "1" } ], "value": { "amountGross": 932000000, "amount": 776000000, "currency": "GBP" }, "mainProcurementCategory": "services", "aboveThreshold": true, "lots": [ { "id": "1", "contractPeriod": { "startDate": "2029-10-01T00:00:00+01:00", "endDate": "2038-09-30T23:59:59+01:00", "maxExtentDate": "2046-09-30T23:59:59+01:00" }, "hasRenewal": true, "status": "planned" } ], "communication": { "futureNoticeDate": "2026-09-18T23:59:59+01:00" }, "status": "planned", "amendments": [ { "id": "045597-2026", "description": "The previous notice had the incorrect contract commencement date of 4 October 2028 running until 3 October 2037.
