This tender, falling under the refuse and waste related services industry category, entails managing hazardous waste generated from the University's diverse departments. The procurement process is currently in the tender stage, with an end date for submissions set for 30th September 2024, and the contract period spanning from 25th November 2024 to 25th November 2026. The tender is open to suppliers worldwide, including the UK, British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, and Europe. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses within the waste management and recycling sector, specifically those specialising in clinical and hazardous waste services. Businesses that can meet the legal requirements for waste management, offer innovative recycling solutions, and provide detailed management information will be well-suited to compete. The University seeks proactive partners to help achieve zero waste to landfill, enhance recycling rates, and optimise waste-related revenues. This project is of particular interest to firms capable of flexible and collaborative approaches, promising substantial commercial benefits for both the supplier and the University. ## Notice The University of Exeter generates hazardous waste from various departments, including laboratories, estates, and grounds teams which is sent for disposal by incineration, and chemical waste which is collected for off-site disposal and/or recycling. Clinical waste is generated across the estate which is sent for waste to energy incineration. The key objectives to the University when undertaking the tender process for a waste and recycling provider(s) are: 1. To ensure that waste providers fulfil all legal requirements relating to waste management and support the University in maintaining full compliance. 2. To work with proactive and innovative providers to maintain zero waste to landfill within the scope of this contract. 3. To ensure that the University receives a service that gives both value for money and the flexibility to grow and develop in line with the University's future goals. 4. To work with providers who are able to deliver up to date and accurate management information both on waste and recycling rates. 5. Engage with providers who will proactively help the University to raise its recycling rates through more efficient and innovative processes. Suppliers should note that The University views waste as a resource, and the University wishes to realise any available revenue from such. In addition, flexible approaches during the contract period and suggestions of alternative collection and disposal methods will be welcomed. This means that we want to work in partnership with our waste Supplier(s), recognising the commercial benefits of this approach to all parties. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/87785278-6c75-45d2-95b1-4da9830b5596 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 29 Aug 2024 | | Submission deadline | 30 Sep 2024 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 25 Nov 2024 - 25 Nov 2026 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £330,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | UNIVERSITY OF EXETER | | Locality | EXETER | | Post town | Exeter | | Postcode | EX4 4QH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK4 Devon | | ITL 3 | TLK43 Devon CC | | Local authority | Exeter | | Electoral ward | Duryard and St James | | Westminster constituency | Exeter | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 90 - Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services ### Codes - 90500000 - Refuse and waste related services - 90520000 - Radioactive-, toxic-, medical- and hazardous waste services - 90524100 - Clinical-waste collection services - 90524200 - Clinical-waste disposal services ## Release History - 29 Aug 2024 at 13:07 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/87785278-6c75-45d2-95b1-4da9830b5596 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/87785278-6c75-45d2-95b1-4da9830b5596 29th August 2024 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=84145&B=EXETER Additional data - https://uk.eu-supply.com/ctm/Company/CompanyInformation/Index/53042 User / Company ## Notice URLs - http://www.exeter.ac.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
