This procurement process, under the open procedure, seeks specialised services including the collection, treatment, recycling, processing, and disposal of various waste streams. It spans all regions in England and the wider UK, catering to domestic, clinical, hazardous, and radioactive waste types. The contract, commencing on 4th January 2022 and running until 17th November 2031, is valued at £2 billion GBP, and offers substantial business opportunities, especially for SMEs within the service industry category. This tender provides extensive opportunities for businesses specialising in waste management, transportation, and disposal services. It is particularly suited for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) due to the DPS structure, which is split into lots covering specific waste types and bespoke treatment options, allowing firms to bid on their areas of expertise. The dynamic nature of the DPS means that additional specialist lots may be introduced throughout its duration, in response to the procurement organisation's evolving needs and market conditions. Firms with capabilities in handling hazardous and clinical waste, as well as those offering innovative recycling solutions, could leverage this opportunity to expand their operations within the healthcare and public sector realms. ## Notice NHS London Procurement Partnership is establishing a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to provide a compliant procurement route for Waste Management Services to the NHS and other public sector organisations. This will encompass Collection, transport, treatment, recycling, processing and disposal as appropriate, of healthcare and general waste including domestic, recyclable, clinical, hazardous, offensive, pharmaceutical, toxic, radioactive and biological waste streams. The DPS will be split into lots to include specific waste streams, integrated waste management and bespoke treatment options. See documentation for full details, NHS LPP may add further specialist lots later in the lifetime of the DPS. This will be determined by the needs of our membership and the development of the market. It is not possible at this stage to precisely define all possibilities however. The DPS will cover all regions in England and the wider UK - see documentation for details.
