## Summary

Herefordshire Council has announced the award of the "Recyclables and Waste Collection Services Contract" to FFC Waste Services (UK) Limited. This contract, set to start on 1st September 2024 and end on 31st August 2044, involves the collection of household and commercial waste across Herefordshire. The council aims to develop innovative service delivery methods in response to the climate emergency, incorporating low carbon options and prioritising residents in service design. With an estimated maximum value of £510 million, the procurement process was conducted through a selective competitive dialogue. The industry category for this contract is refuse disposal and treatment with additional services such as medical waste services. Herefordshire, a rural county in the West Midlands, has around 89,000 residential households and 2,100 commercial properties.

This tender presents significant opportunities for business growth, particularly for firms specialising in waste management and recycling services. Businesses with experience in implementing sustainable waste solutions and those capable of innovative service delivery would be well-suited for this contract. The long duration of the contract and its substantial value offer stability and growth potential for the selected supplier. Smaller enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, providing an inclusive environment fostering diverse contributions in the waste management sector. Herefordshire Council's commitment to recycling and reducing landfill waste aligns with the growing demand for environmentally conscious waste management solutions, making it an attractive proposition for forward-thinking waste management companies.

## Notice

This is an exciting tender opportunity and is provided by Herefordshire Council who is looking for a new Waste Collection Contractor to provide household and commercial waste collections across the county. We are particularly interested in developing bold and innovative approaches to service delivery, that both respond to the climate emergency by exploring low carbon options and ensure that residents are placed at the heart of service design and delivery; to compliment these objectives we are seeking an equally dedicated service provider who will work with the council to help deliver our ambitions. Herefordshire is located in the West Midlands of England, bordering with Wales, Shropshire, Worcestershire and Gloucestershire. It is a predominantly rural county with around 95% of the county classified as such. It has the third lowest population density of any English county (89 people per square kilometre) with large areas of picturesque and relatively unspoilt countryside. From 2024 there will be approximately 89000 residential households and 2100 commercial properties. Herefordshire Council adopted an ambitious new Integrated Waste Management Strategy in July 2021 with far reaching targets to increase recycling and reuse and to end waste going to landfill. Our collection model ambition will see new collection services and provide increased recycling capacity for residents whilst reducing the frequency of collection for residual waste. Please note: the estimated maximum value of this contract includes for all extension options (20 years) and an 8% compound inflation rate. Clearly it is impossible to calculate a more accurate figure given the contract term and current fluctuations in terms of inflation.
