## Summary

Leeds City Council has initiated a market sounding exercise titled "Co-mingled Garden and Food Waste Processing," under the industry category of sewage, refuse, cleaning, and environmental services. The procurement involves gathering information from the market to shape a future procurement process for accepting and processing co-mingled garden and food waste. This exercise applies to the Yorkshire and the Humber region in the United Kingdom. The process follows the open procedure method and is currently in the tender stage, with key dates including the end of the tender period on 21st November 2024, and the contract period starting on 22nd November 2024 and ending on 23rd November 2024. The procurement stage is essential for gauging the market's response and ensuring a more efficient procurement process.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in refuse and waste-related services to potentially secure future contracts with a major public body. SMEs are especially encouraged to participate, as the contracts are tailored to fit smaller organisations as well. The involvement in this market sounding exercise allows businesses to influence the specifications of the eventual tender, aligning the requirements with their capabilities and thus enhancing their chance of success in future procurement. Companies experienced in processing garden and food waste will find this opportunity particularly aligned with their expertise and resources.
