The procurement method employed is a limited tender, which allows for the award process without prior publication of a call for competition. This contract, originally signed on 9th March 2017, is currently in the modification phase due to increased demand from the COVID-19 pandemic, with a total contract value now reaching £393,000. The contract modification is necessary to extend the current agreement until 30th April 2022, enabling the completion of the evaluation for a new contract expected to be awarded in January 2022. This opportunity presents significant growth potential for businesses specialising in hygiene services, particularly for those that can provide clinical waste collection and disposal services. Companies with experience in servicing educational institutions or similar public sector facilities would be well-placed to compete for this contract. The Education Authority NI has previously engaged with suppliers like Robinson Services Ltd, highlighting the potential for established and new companies alike to enter the market and expand their service offerings within the education sector. ## Notice Provision and Servicing of Female Hygiene, Clinical and Nappy Waste Units to individual educational establishments within the Education Authority ### Lot Information Lot 1 Provision and Servicing of Female Hygiene, Clinical and Nappy Waste Units to individual educational establishments within the Education Authority ### Procurement Information The current Contract 70242 Female Hygiene, Clinical and Nappy Waste Units for the EANI commenced on the 9 March 2017 with a total contract value of PS200,000.
