## Summary

The Hertfordshire County Council, as the Waste Disposal Authority, is conducting a Pre-Procurement Market Engagement (PPME) for the provision of an Operational Contract for Waste Transfer Stations and Haulage. The Council aims to develop a network of Waste Transfer Stations to serve the county, facilitating the bulk processing of Local Authority Collected Waste. Interested organisations are invited to submit their feedback through the In-Tend system by 2nd March 2023.

This planned procurement opportunity in the services sector falls under the Refuse and waste-related services category. It presents a chance for businesses involved in waste management, logistics, and environmental services to engage with the Council and potentially compete for future contracts. The Council's initiative seeks input from the market to shape the scope of future contracting opportunities, providing valuable insights for businesses looking to grow in the waste management sector.

## Notice

The Council, as the Waste Disposal Authority (WDA) for Hertfordshire, has procured a number of long-term contracts for the disposal of residual LACW. The recent procurement resulted in the award of six contracts that will commence in April 2024 and run for a period of 10 years with the option to extend, for up to a further five years. The contracts contain an option for bulky waste for occasions when shredding facilities are not available. All delivery points for residual waste are outside of Hertfordshire and therefore, there is a requirement for the Council to bulk Local Authority Collected Waste (LACW) at transfer stations prior to onward transportation to the disposal facilities. Details of awarded contracts can be found in Appendix 1.To facilitate this approach the Council is developing a network of Waste Transfer Stations (WTS) to serve the county. This network includes a number of existing and planned facilities as set out in the PPME Documentation
