## Summary

Essex County Council is planning a procurement process for Bio Waste Disposal Services, targeting refuse and waste management in Essex and the unitary authority of Southend-on-Sea. The tender process is currently in the planning stage, with an engagement end date set for 19th December 2021. Interested suppliers are invited to complete a market engagement questionnaire as part of this early engagement notice, published on 7th December 2021. The services are classified under refuse and waste related services, with operations expected to commence in Spring 2022.

This procurement presents an opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) involved in waste management and disposal services to engage with local authorities. Businesses that excel in the treatment and disposal of municipal bio-waste, particularly those familiar with sustainable practices and regulatory compliance, would be well-positioned to compete in this tender. The council may conduct follow-up discussions with respondents in the New Year for any necessary clarifications, further enhancing engagement avenues for interested parties.
