This process falls under the services industry category, specifically classified as refuse recycling services (CPV code 90514000). It is currently at the tender stage, with the tender period ending on 22 December 2021. The contract will commence on 1 January 2022 and is expected to run until 30 June 2022, ensuring a continuation of essential waste processing services in Torquay, South West England, while further procurement developments take place. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in waste management and recycling services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to participate, given the suitability criteria indicating their eligibility. Businesses that are well-equipped to handle waste processing and recycling, especially those with a proven track record and experience in public sector contracts, may find this a valuable opportunity to expand their client base and contribute to sustainable waste management practices in the region. ## Notice SWISCo Limited's current Agreement for the receipt and processing of co-mingled recyclable materials from domestic properties in Torbay on behalf of Torbay Council is coming to an end on 31 December 2021. The purpose of this notice is to inform the market of SWISCo's intention to extend the Agreement with the incumbent Contractor to 30 June 2022 to enable a formal procurement exercise to be undertaken. The period of the proposed extension is from 01 January 2022 till 30 June 2022. Although the spend for this period is below the regulated procurement threshold, this notice is being published because the value of the extension combined with previous spend takes the total value above threshold. Additional information: The Council terminated its arrangement with its Joint Venture Partner with effect from 01 July 2020 and all services provided by the Joint Venture Partner and associated services were novated where possible to the new wholly owned company, SWISCo, set up by the Council. The existing Agreement with the incumbent Contractor ends on 31 December 2021 and due to the continuing review of services it has not been possible to re-tender this Agreement in time. We envisage the procurement exercise will take a further six months and we will therefore not be in a position to contract with a new supplier until 01 July 2022. In order to ensure continuity of provision during this time the Council is intending to make a direct award of a six month Agreement to the incumbent supplier. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/6813ab91-f9eb-490f-ae41-930e499ddea0 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Other - | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 10 Dec 2021 | | Submission deadline | 22 Dec 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Jan 2022 - 30 Jun 2022 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £80,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | TORBAY COUNCIL | | Locality | TORQUAY | | Post town | Torquay | | Postcode | TQ1 3DR | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK4 Devon | | ITL 3 | TLK42 Torbay | | Local authority | Torbay | | Electoral ward | Tormohun | | Westminster constituency | Torbay | | Delivery location | TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 90 - Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services ### Codes - 90514000 - Refuse recycling services ## Release History - 10 Dec 2021 at 13:00 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/6813ab91-f9eb-490f-ae41-930e499ddea0 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/6813ab91-f9eb-490f-ae41-930e499ddea0 10th December 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.torbay.gov.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
