## Summary

The procurement process initiated by the London Borough of Lewisham focuses on the provision of dry mixed recycling disposal and processing services through a Materials Recovery Facility (MRF). This contract is classified under refuse recycling services in the services category. Although the tender has now reached the award stage, with Veolia ES named as the supplier, the process was conducted via a limited procurement method without prior publication of a call for competition. The contract, valued at GBP 3,600,000, was signed on 3rd December 2025 and is active, offering a potential extension for an additional two years. The region associated with this service is UKI44, which includes London, ensuring engagement primarily within this locality.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in refuse recycling services, particularly those capable of managing operations through a Materials Recovery Facility. With the active involvement of a substantial buyer, the London Borough of Lewisham, and Veolia ES, a large-scale supplier, the framework suggests potential for collaborative endeavours and the development of sustainable waste management strategies. Companies that can provide competitive pricing and demonstrate efficiency in waste processing are well-positioned to benefit from similar public sector contracts, especially those who can meet high standards of environmental protection as specified by regional authorities. This procurement could serve as a model for firms aiming to expand their service offerings within urban environments such as London.
