## Summary

Mid Devon District Council (MDDC) has initiated an open procedure for the procurement of a replacement baler and a maintenance contract for their Kerbside Recycling Service, under the title “MDDC202311-002 - Procurement of a replacement Baler and Maintenance Contract.” Classified under the industry category of Recycling equipment, this tender is pertinent to businesses in the recycling sector. The baler will be installed at the MDDC depot in Willand, England, with the procurement stage currently in the tender phase. The tender documentation was published on 5th December 2024, and interested businesses have until 6th January 2025 to submit their bids. The contract period is set to start on 13th February 2025 and will run until 31st March 2029.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses that specialise in recycling equipment and maintenance services, particularly those keen on expanding their market presence in public sector contracts. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are especially encouraged to participate, given the suitability criteria outlined by MDDC. The project’s scope, involving both the provision of a new baler and its ongoing maintenance, opens doors for businesses that offer comprehensive recycling solutions and services. By successfully securing this contract, businesses can establish a long-term partnership with MDDC and benefit from steady revenue streams over the four-year contract period.

## Notice

Mid Devon District Council's Kerbside Recycling Service is expanding due to an increase in properties and associated increase in recyclable materials following the successful implementation of our Bin-it 123 collections. We therefore need a new baler which will enable us to future proof the service against further increases. We currently collect a variety of dry recycling materials on a fortnightly basis, which are sorted at kerbside. We are looking to purchase a new baler to be installed at our depot in Willand, which will serve both our current and future needs. Our current system automatically sorts co-mingled Mixed Plastic/steel and aluminium cans. We also have a sorting platform to enable manual separation of contaminants. A visit to site will be arranged for any companies interested in this tender. A maintenance contract is also need for the Baler and associated equipment. This tender will be in two Lots.
