## Summary

The Hertfordshire County Council has initiated a procurement process for a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to supply bin bags, titled "HCC Oct 2017 - DPS for the Supply of Bin Bags." The procurement is classified under the goods category, specifically within the polythene waste and refuse bags industry. The DPS is set to commence on 12th December 2017 and will last for a core period of two years, with potential extensions available. The tender period closes on 1st December 2017, at which point the Council can begin evaluating applications to join the DPS.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for companies specialising in the manufacture and supply of refuse bags and related products. Enterprises able to meet the pre-qualification criteria and secure a position on the DPS may benefit from recurring contracts without exclusivity, as the Council may also engage other suppliers. Given the estimated joint annual expenditure of approximately £310,000 across participating authorities, businesses that demonstrate reliability and capacity for flexible supply will be well-positioned to compete for individual order competitions during the DPS's validity.

## Notice

Hertfordshire County Council (the 'Council') invites applications from suitably experienced and competent organisations who wish to pre-qualify onto its Dynamic Purchasing System ('DPS') for the supply of Bin Bags. The DPS is a two stage process and will be conducted in accordance with Regulation 34 of The Public Contracts Regulations 2015. Firstly, organisations apply by completing the Council's online Selection Questionnaire ('SQ'). Organisations which satisfy the pre-determined selection requirements set out in the SQ will then be admitted to the DPS. Individual orders throughout the duration of the DPS will be awarded via competition during the second stage. Organisations admitted to the DPS should note that they won't be invited to tender for competition(s) until they have signed and returned the DPS Agreement to the Council accordingly. The pattern and volume of demand for Bin Bags may be subject to change and it is stressed that there are no undertakings concerning likely volume of demand. For the avoidance of doubt, each organisation admitted to the DPS acknowledges that, no form of exclusivity or volume guarantee is guaranteed by the Council for the Bin Bags and that the Council is at all times entitled to enter into other contracts and arrangements with other organisations for the provision of any or all bin bag supplies which are the same or similar.

The anticipated annual joint expenditure, for the Council and the participating authorities on these Bin Bags is presently circa 310,000 GBP per annum.
