## Summary

Essex County Council, Norfolk County Council, and Suffolk County Council have jointly concluded a procurement process for a contract titled "Landfill Flare Maintenance." This contract falls under the services industry category, specifically focused on landfill management services, and it was awarded to Landfill Systems Maintenance Limited. The procurement method used was limited, following an award procedure without a prior call for competition. The contract, signed on 19 April 2021, is valued at £115,000 and covers maintenance services across various locations in Essex, Norfolk, and Suffolk.

This tender offers a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in environmental services, particularly those focused on landfill management and maintenance. Companies with expertise in managing flare systems, biofilters, and related technologies would be well-positioned to compete in future tenders. With the contract having established a clear need and framework, businesses can leverage this opportunity to build relationships with local councils and expand their service offerings in the region.

## Notice

### Lot Information

Lot 1

Contract to provide flare maintenance services for Landfill sites in Essex, Norfolk and Suffolk

Options: We may extend this Agreement for up to 24 months by giving You six months' notice in writing which notice expires no later than the Expiry Date. The extension may be provided in any manner in so far as it does not exceed 24 months. For example 12 months + 12 months.

### Procurement Information

The award of the contract is lawful in accordance with regulation 32 of the Public Contract Regulations 2015 (as amended) as competition is absent for the following technical reasons. Due to the propriety of the software and hardware which is interconnected, to award a contract to another provider would require the hardware and monitoring system to be replaced in total at an estimated cost of PS150,000 to PS200,000 per Council. The Councils do not have budget for the replacement of this equipment. Due to the existing software it negates the Councils' ability to undertake a competitive procurement with other specialist companies as a different monitoring system would not be able to connect with the existing hardware. The expected value of the contract for the maximum five year term (inclusive of extensions) is PS115,000 which is below the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (as amended) threshold PS189,330. Therefore, the award of the contract is outside of scope of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (as amended). The Councils have undertaken to issue a Voluntary Ex Ante Notice in line with their own aims on transparency.
