## Summary

Lincolnshire County Council is in the planning stage for a significant procurement project titled "LCC Provision of Dry Mixed Recycling (DMR) Services". The aim is to manage recyclate waste collected by seven waste collection authorities across Lincolnshire, with materials to be processed at six countywide collection points. The project, with a planned start date of 1st July 2027 and completion by 30th June 2032, is valued at approximately £25.5 million. It focuses on refuse transport and recycling services under the services procurement category. A future notice is expected by 1st September 2026, offering potential bidders ample time to prepare.

This procurement opportunity is well-suited for businesses specialising in recycling and waste management services, particularly those with expertise in dry mixed recyclate materials. The successful contractor will work closely with Lincolnshire County Council to maximise recycling efficiency and the value of DMR while adapting to dynamic demographic and industry changes. Businesses that can demonstrate contemporary expertise, flexibility, and a commitment to enhancing recycling practices through innovation and education are likely to be most competitive in securing this contract.
