The contract falls under the industry category of sewage, refuse, cleaning, and environmental services, and will take place in the UKK region. This procurement is currently in the planning stage, with pre-market engagement interviews scheduled for the week commencing 17th February 2025. Interested suppliers must submit their RSVP by 7th February 2025 to participate. The existing contract will expire on 31st March 2026, and a notice for the future tender is expected on 1st June 2025. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in waste management services to establish or expand their operations within Devon. By participating in the pre-market engagement, potential suppliers can influence the contract requirements, structure, and timescales to better align with their capabilities and business models. Companies with experience in reducing residual waste, maximising recycling, re-use and re-sale, while delivering cost-effective solutions, would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. Engaging with Devon County Council at this stage can provide valuable insights and a competitive edge in the upcoming tender process. ## Notice As a Waste Disposal Authority, Devon County Council is responsible for providing facilities (Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs)), at which members of the public can discard their bulky household waste. The authority manages a network of 19 HWRCs which manage approximately 80,000 tonnes per annum of household waste. Of the 19 HWRCs, Deepmoor HWRC in the District of Torridge is subject to contract with a third-party service provider and therefore not part of this contract. In 2023-24 the 18 HWRCs involved in this contract handled approx. 79,000 tonnes of waste in total, while the two Waste Transfer Stations handled approx. 12,000 tonnes. The focus of the contract shall be to reduce residual waste, maximise recycling, re-use and re-sale, whilst minimising cost. The existing contract under these services is due to expire on 31/03/2026 and as part of the planning process for the new procurement to replace this service the Authority wishes to undertake a level of pre market engagement in order to better appreciate and understand the market for this service and ensure it can produce a specification, tender process and final contract as attractive as possible to potential suppliers. In order to participate in this market engagement process please see the information in the additional information below. ### Lot Information Lot 1 We are looking to appoint a single provider for this contract.
