## Summary

Midlothian Council has initiated a procurement process for "The Treatment of Residual Waste and Associated Services" under an open procedure. This procurement falls under the category of refuse and waste-related services (CPV: 90500000) and is located in Dalkeith, UKM73. The initial tender stage began on 1st July 2024, with submission deadlines updated to 9th August 2024. The process involved an estimated value of £4,128,000 and aimed to contract a service provider for the treatment, recovery, or disposal of approximately 9,000 tonnes of bulky residual waste annually, including Waste Upholstered Domestic Seating (WUDS), rubble/stone, and soil/grit/street sweepings. However, the tender was ultimately unsuccessful.

This tender offers valuable opportunities for businesses specialising in waste management and environmental services to expand their operations and engage with public sector projects. Companies with expertise in waste treatment, particularly those handling varied waste types such as bulky items and construction detritus, would be exceptionally well-suited. Due to the open procedure, the procurement process emphasised both quality (60%) and price (40%) criteria, presenting a fair competitive landscape for capable service providers. Furthermore, the inclusion of community benefits in the contract offers an additional avenue for businesses to positively impact the local community while fulfilling contractual obligations.

## Notice

Midlothian Council is looking for a suitably skilled Contractor for the provision of disposal and/or treatment capacity for bulky residual waste, including Waste Upholstered Domestic Seating (WUDS), rubble/stone and soil/grit/street sweepings.
