This procurement process is currently in the planning stage, with an anticipated contract commencement date set for April 2022. Interested parties should note that the full roll-out of a new collection system is planned from October 2021 to February 2022. Prospective bidders can submit proposals for multiple lots, specifically focusing on the transportation and processing of approximately 7500 tonnes of dry recyclable materials, including mixed paper and card as well as plastics and cans, located in South East Wales. This tender represents a significant opportunity for recycling operators and businesses specialising in waste management and environmental services. Companies with expertise in sorting, processing, and marketing recyclables are particularly well suited to compete. Additionally, the council is open to discussions regarding innovative contract structures, such as a "pain/gain" model, which could mitigate risks associated with fluctuations in the recycling market. Bidders that can align with Monmouthshire County Council's sustainability goals and contribute to achieving a 70% recycling target by 2025 will be at a competitive advantage in this tender process. ## Notice Please see attachment ### Lot Information Haulage and treatment of mixed paper and card Monmouthshire is a county located in South East Wales with a population of approximately 92,000. It is a largely rural county, interspersed with four market towns and a number of villages. The largest town in the county is Abergavenny. Monmouthshire County Council would like to explore opportunities to work with suitably experienced and established recycling operators to transport and process the 7500 tonnes of dry recycling collected by Monmouthshire County Council. The material is currently collected as two separate waste streams in single use plastic bags. Paper and card is collected in a red bag, plastic and cans are collected in a purple bag. Trials to collect these materials loose in reusable polypropylene bags are well advanced and the full roll out of this collection system will be introduced from October 2021 through to February 2022. The target materials collected will be separated on split-back RCVs and kept separate at the bulking stations for onward transportation. Target materials are: 1. Paper and card - including newspapers, magazines, directories, office paper, junk mail, envelopes, shredded paper, all cardboard including, boxes, packets, corrugated card 2. Plastic and cans - including plastic bottles, tubs, trays, pots, tetrapaks, juice cartons and all steel and aluminium cans and tins including aerosols and aluminium foil and trays. It is anticipated that a new contract would commence in April 2022 and the successful recycling operator will collect the materials from the Councils two bulking transfer stations, sort the materials, market the materials and dispose of any non-target materials. Collecting and storing the materials separately allows for the market to bid for both or single streams. The council would like to discuss the optimum contract length and review. Monmouthshire County Council recognises the volatility of the recycling market and would like to discuss a "pain/gain" contract that limits both parties exposure to risks and costs. The proposals for Deposit Return Schemes and Extended Producer Responsibility could impact collection of some materials during the contract period and bring both challenges and opportunities. Monmouthshire County Council is committed to meeting and exceeding the Welsh Government recycling target of 70% by 2025. There is an expectation that the successful contractor would support the Welsh Government Circular Economy aspirations and seek Welsh markets for reprocessed recyclate wherever possible, deliver against the Wellbeing of Future Generations Act and support the Council in achieving its Climate Change Emergency priorities.
