The market engagement aims to assess interest and shape the forthcoming Invitation to Tender for enforcement services related to environmental crimes like littering and dog fouling. The engagement period concludes on 26th September 2024. This initiative supports the council's ongoing "Cleaner Greener Wyre" campaign, which has been in effect since October 2018, aiming to maintain high cleanliness standards in the borough. This tender offers significant opportunities for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) specialising in environmental enforcement and public safety services. Companies with expertise in issuing and managing Fixed Penalty Notices, educating the public on environmental laws, and carrying out enforcement measures will find this engagement particularly beneficial. The council’s current arrangement operates at no cost to them, with revenue generated through penalty notices reinvested into the service. Businesses capable of continuing these services while innovatively contributing to public cleanliness and order will find a promising avenue for growth through this procurement process. ## Notice The council has been working in partnership with a specialist environmental enforcement provider to promote the ethos of a Cleaner Greener Wyre since October 2018. This arrangement has enabled council Enforcement Officers to deliver campaigns to inform, educate and prevent environmental crime such as littering and dog fouling, as well as dogs-on-leads/exclusions infringements (PSPOs), supported by education, intervention and enforcement measures as required. The current arrangement which is due to come to an end in September 2024 is on a nil cost basis to the council. The council receives a percentage of the fixed penalty income generated through enforcement actions and this is invested back into the service. The enforcement provider has delegated authority to issue Fixed Penalty Notices on behalf of the council for offences relating to: * Section 87 Environmental Protection Act, 1990 under powers provided by Section 88 * Section 59 of Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014. * Any other offences with the agreement of both parties Cleanliness standards remain very high throughout the borough, but it is crucial to manage issues of littering, dog fouling and dog control, if we are to maintain or exceed current standards. The Council would like to establish the appetite of the market for this procurement exercise, to determine the most appropriate route to market, and to inform a specification which will be developed for the Invitation to Tender. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e4222c94-62d8-44fb-90f4-5ebc36500ec0 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 29 Aug 2024 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 26 Sep 2024 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | WYRE COUNCIL | | Locality | POULTON-LE-FYLDE | | Post town | Blackpool | | Postcode | FY6 7PU | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD4 Lancashire | | ITL 3 | TLD44 Lancaster and Wyre | | Local authority | Wyre | | Electoral ward | Breck | | Westminster constituency | Fylde | | Delivery location | TLD North West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 98 - Other community, social and personal services ### Codes - 98000000 - Other community, social and personal services ## Release History - 29 Aug 2024 at 09:11 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e4222c94-62d8-44fb-90f4-5ebc36500ec0 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e4222c94-62d8-44fb-90f4-5ebc36500ec0 29th August 2024 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=16747ed2-033d-ef11-812d-005056b64545 Link to access the market engagement questionnaire ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
