This procurement, currently in the tender stage, is set to conclude on 6th March 2020. The contract will commence on 29th June 2020 and run until 28th June 2025, with a total estimated value of £20 million. Interested parties are expected to be registered on the Home Office e-Sourcing portal and can express their interest by contacting Janine Melia directly. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in waste management, recycling, and incineration services, particularly those with expertise in disposing of seized or hazardous materials. Companies that can provide secure facilities and a comprehensive disposal solution may find this contract well-suited to their capabilities. Additionally, firms that can introduce innovative disposal methods, such as "Waste to Energy" or "Anaerobic Digestion", will be particularly competitive in this procurement process. ## Notice The Authority detains or seizes goods and vehicles at the border which are sometimes adopted for onward investigation by Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC), National Crime Agency (NCA) or Immigration Enforcement (IE) under the appropriate legislation. HMRC, NCA and IE also detain/seize goods through their inland operations which shall require disposal, destruction or recycling. The Authority is seeking a managed service provider or a prime contractor who will provide a flexible, secure, efficient, auditable end-to-end disposal service for seized goods and act as a single point of contact for the Authority to deal with. In handling the seized goods, the contractor will be required to provide secure facilities and procedures; prevent loss; maintain an accurate audit trail of all its activities; ensure that the chain of evidence is maintained; provide destruction certificates; provide value for money; and comply with indicative holding timelines. High temperature incineration of drugs and shredding facilities for tobacco will be required. The Authority may consider alternative disposal methods not currently utilised for seized goods such as "Waste to Energy" or "Anaerobic Digestion". Income generation from disposals through recycling of seized goods will be expected. Seized goods will include: - drugs banned by the UK Government under the misuse of drugs act, the medicines act and the psychoactive substances act, - controlled Medicine and Drugs including Stereoisomeric forms or salts thereof, - offensive Weapons (including knuckle dusters, knives, stun guns, taser guns), - radioactive materials, - firearms (including ammunition), - khat, - tobacco, - alcohol, - Products of Animal Origin (POAO)/Plant Based Goods (PBG), - nitrous oxide and aerosols, - perfume and cosmetics, - counterfeit goods (including footwear, clothing, batteries and other goods), - cover Load goods (including furniture, textiles, stationery, building materials), - packaging materials, - CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) Goods, and - fuels.

These volumes cannot be guaranteed but provide an historical indication as volume depends upon the output of law enforcement activity and legal court cases as to when items become ready for disposal.
