## Summary

Warwickshire County Council has awarded a contract valued at £1.8 million to Think3e Consortium Limited for the haulage of food waste from various collection points within the region. The contract pertains to refuse and waste related services and falls under the CPV code 90500000. This project, located in the West Midlands, entails the collection and transportation of separately collected food waste stored in containers to designated delivery points. The contract commenced on 1st August 2024 and will run until 31st January 2029, with a possible extension of 30 months. The procurement method used was an open procedure, adhering to above-threshold regulations. The deadline for tender submissions was 30th May 2024.

This contract represents a significant business growth opportunity for companies specializing in waste management and logistics. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) focused on environmental services, particularly those dealing with organic waste, are well-suited to compete for similar tenders. Participating in this procurement process can enhance an SME’s portfolio and strengthen its market position as a valued public service provider. With a comprehensive understanding of municipal waste regulations and the capability to scale services in alignment with potential legislative changes, companies can play a crucial role in supporting local waste management strategies.

## Notice

Warwickshire County Council (the Council) was seeking a Supplier who could provide a haulage service for separately collected food waste from specified collection points. Full details were outlined in the ITT The value of PS1.8 million at II.1.7 is an anticipated figure to allow for volumes of food waste tonnage across all waste collection authorities in Warwickshire. Currently food waste is only collected separately by Warwick District and Stratford-on-Avon District. The initial contract term will be for a period of 2 years. However, the Council reserves the right to extend the contract by further periods not exceeding 30 months (2 years and 6 months) in total (30 months being the maximum available extension period) at the discretion of the Council. This means the maximum possible Contract term is 4 years and 6 months in total. Warwickshire County Council (the Council) was seeking a Supplier who could provide a collection and haulage service for separately collected food waste stored in containers from specified collection points to the Delivery Point. Full details were outlined in the ITT. Warwickshire County Council is the Waste Disposal Authority and managed the Council's statutory obligation to provide treatment and disposal for municipal waste collected throughout Warwickshire by the Waste Collection Authorities and/or by suppliers acting on behalf of these Councils. The Waste Collection Authorities (WCAs) in Warwickshire are: North Warwickshire Borough Council; Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council; Rugby Borough Council; Warwick District Council; Stratford-on-Avon District Council. The WCAs listed above have a statutory obligation to arrange for the kerbside collection of waste from households in Warwickshire. Warwick District Council and Stratford-on-Avon District Council carry out weekly collections of separately collected food waste. There is currently no separately collected food waste service operating in North Warwickshire Borough Council, Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council and Rugby Borough Council. However, it is possible that North Warwickshire Borough Council, Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council and Rugby Borough Council implement separate food waste collections in the near future if this is made a requirement by Government or for other reasons. If separate food waste collections are implemented by one or all of these WCAs, the Council may require a collection and haulage service for this material. Details were outlined in the ITT. These additional services will not necessarily run for the full term of the contract (4 years and 6 months) and will instead run on a co-terminus basis with the services for Warwick District Council and Stratford-on-Avon District Council. Additional information: Warwickshire County Council used its e-tendering system (CSW-JETS) for the administration of this procurement process. During the course of the Contract period the range and scope of these services may be subject to modification and variation to meet the changing needs and requirements of the Council, potential changes in legislation, and the changing demands placed on the Council by its customers.
