## Summary

The Cardiff and Vale University Health Board is currently in the planning stage for a procurement process titled "Hire of Waste Compactors," under the industry category of services related to refuse disposal and treatment. This initiative involves the operation of waste management facilities, including the University Hospital of Wales (UHW) and University Hospital Llandough (UHL), with the aim of entering a fully inclusive lease agreement for various compaction equipment. Key activities include servicing, maintenance, and training for staff. The procurement process is being managed on behalf of the Health Board by the NHS Wales Shared Service Partnership, with significant dates approaching such as the deadline for market engagement on 26th June 2026 and a future notice expected by 29th June 2026. The procurement value is estimated at GBP 120,000 gross.

The upcoming lease agreement provides a notable opportunity for businesses specialising in waste compaction equipment, especially those capable of servicing and maintaining such equipment efficiently over a long duration. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that offer robust emergency repair services and comprehensive staff training programs are particularly suited to compete, given the requirements. Businesses in the waste disposal and treatment sector, capable of delivering under the terms set by public authority central government regulations and Welsh devolved regulations, stand to benefit significantly from this contract as it promises potentially fruitful engagements over the contract period beginning on 1st November 2026 and possibly extending to 31st October 2031.
