## Summary

Gloucestershire County Council is conducting a procurement process for Food Waste Treatment Services, with an award planned for a single contract covering the treatment of all food waste collected from each District Council in the South West of the United Kingdom. The procurement is currently in the Award stage, following the tender period that ended on December 2, 2020. The contract is set to commence on October 1, 2021, and will span eight years, with an option for a two-year extension. The value of the contract is estimated at £15,740,000 and follows an open procurement method.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in waste management and recycling services, particularly those with capabilities in the treatment of organic waste. Companies that can provide seamless bulking and haulage services, especially those with subcontracting options, will be well-suited for this contract. The long-term nature of the contract allows for business stability, making it an attractive opportunity for medium to large enterprises with expertise in refuse and waste-related services.

## Notice

Gloucestershire County Council is seeking tenders for the provision and operation of a food waste (Contract Waste) treatment service. Bidders will be required to provide treatment of food waste and a bulking and haulage service (if the treatment facility is located outside Gloucestershire.); the use of sub- contractors is acceptable for any part of the service. Gloucestershire County Council may choose to direct WCAs to direct deliver food waste to the treatment or bulking point, or may make its own arrangements for local bulking and haulage to the treatment or bulking point from local WCAs depots if it is more economical to do so. This decision will be determined by factors of distance and cost. Current contract for the treatment of household food waste was let in 2014 and provides anaerobic digestion at a single site in the county. This contract expires in September 2021. A single contract will be awarded for the treatment of all Food Waste collected and delivered from each District Council. The contract will be for a period of eight (8) years with the option to extend for any period up to a further two (2) years. The Contract Commencement date shall be 01 October 2021
