The contract is aimed at managing household waste recycling centres across the county, focusing on waste wood processing. The value of the contract is £30,000,000 GBP. The market engagement exercise is ongoing, with interested organisations required to complete and return a questionnaire by June 15, 2023. The Council will use this feedback to shape the future procurement process. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses involved in refuse and waste related services to compete for a significant contract in the Hampshire region. Companies with expertise in waste processing and recycling, particularly in the wood waste stream, are well-suited to engage with the Council. The planned procurement stage offers a chance for businesses to showcase their capabilities and potentially secure a long-term partnership with the local authorities. Interested organisations should actively participate in the market engagement exercise to influence the procurement route and procedures. ## Notice Hampshire County Council, in partnership with Portsmouth City Council and Southampton City Council, manages 26 Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs) across the county where residents can deposit their bulky household and garden waste. These facilities are well used, receiving more than 4m visitors per year and handling over 130,000 tonnes of material. A key waste stream which householders regularly bring to HWRCs is wood. The composition ranges from damaged and unwanted furniture items through to fence panels and dismantled sheds. Last year (2022/23), wood accounted for over 20% of inputs into the system. It is recognised that processing waste wood now attracts a significant cost to local authorities, and therefore in the current financial climate it is important that all councils regularly monitor their services to ensure that they continue to represent best value for the council taxpayer. The primary objective of the market engagement exercise is to understand the capabilities and capacity within the market, and to identify how the market can support the Council and gain insight into the most suitable delivery model. The Council intends to engage with market operators via an Engagement Questionnaire to gauge interest and opinion on service delivery and procurement options. Details of how to find the questionnaire are given in section 11.2.4 below ### Lot Information Lot 1 This Prior Information Notice (PIN) is an indication of potential future procurement activity only.
