## Summary

Newark And Sherwood District Council is conducting a procurement process for the provision of collection and reprocessing services for glass packaging, under a concession contract. The project, titled "NSDC-1466 The Provision of the Collection and Reprocessing of Glass Packaging," is in the tender stage following a recent tender cancellation due to issues in the procurement documents. The industry category is refuse recycling services, and the procurement takes place in Newark, Nottinghamshire, UK. The initial tender was managed by Welland Procurement and included an open competition method for services valued at £984,000 gross. The contract was initially to commence on 3rd August 2026 for two years, with the possibility of a two-year extension, subject to satisfactory performance. The tender phase was initially due to end on 15th June 2026.

This procurement offers significant opportunities for businesses in the recycling industry, particularly those specialising in refuse and glass recycling services. Companies with appropriate licences, compliant with legislation, and capable of managing and optimizing recycling services for glass, will find this tender particularly suited to their strengths. Given the exclusive arrangement for glass collection provided by the council, businesses can secure a dedicated source of materials, encouraging investment in infrastructure and operations.

Participants are expected to propose competitive and high-quality service offerings, as these are priority evaluation criteria, with price accounting for 60% and quality for 40% of the decision-making process.
