## Summary

The procurement process for Waste Collection Services has been initiated by Warwick District Council and Stratford-on-Avon District Council, targeting the services sector within the refuse recycling industry. The contract is scheduled to begin on 1st August 2022 and is intended to last for an initial period of eight years, with potential extensions not exceeding a total of 16 years. The estimated value of the contract is approximately £7.5 million per annum. As of now, this procurement is in the 'Planning' stage, with engagement events and clarifications outlined for interested suppliers.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in waste collection and recycling services, particularly those capable of managing large-scale operations across multiple districts. Companies that provide advanced waste management solutions or have experience with local authority contracts would be well-suited to compete. The procurement method employed is a competitive procedure with negotiation, which allows for effective collaboration and potentially beneficial financial arrangements, such as vehicle leasing options included in the contract terms.

## Notice

Stratford-on-Avon District Council and Warwick District Council (The Authorities) sought expressions of interest from potential tenderers to provide a new joint contract for Waste Collection Services from 1 August 2022. The initial contract term will be eight (8) years with the option to extend the contract by further periods not exceeding 96 months.

To replace these contracts the Authorities are looking to collaboratively procure a new joint Waste Collection Contract across the two Districts based on the '123+' waste collection model: 1 - Weekly separate food waste collections 2 - Fortnightly co-mingled dry recycling collections 3 - Three weekly residual waste collections Plus - Fortnightly garden waste

### Lot Information

Lot 1

Stratford-on-Avon District Council and Warwick District Council (The Authorities) were looking to jointly procure a single supplier to provide Waste Collection Services across both districts from 1st August 2022. The initial contract term was for eight (8) years with the option to extend the contract by further periods not exceeding 96 months. The estimated total value of the contract is approximately PS7.5 million per annum or PS120,000,000 over the maximum 16 year period. The Authorities used the Competitive Procedure with negotiation, resulting in an award of a single contract. It used a two stage procurement, with the initial stage being the completion of an SSQ. Following evaluation of the SSQ, all suppliers that achieved a score of 65% or higher were invited to tender. Following evaluation of initial tenders, the Authorities entered into to the negotiation stage. Only one round of negotiation was undertaken for this procurement. A contract award was undertaken in October 2021.

Options: An option to purchase and lease back the operational vehicles required for this contract was included in addition to the standard model of leasing vehicles from the contractor as part of the service contract. The Authorities chose to utilise this option with the winning supplier as it was financially beneficial to do so.

Renewal: This contract can be extended in period up to 8 years following satisfactory performance in the initial term.
