## Summary

Dumfries and Galloway Council is seeking to appoint contractors for waste treatment and disposal services related to its Ecodeco mechanical biological treatment (MBT) plant. The procurement is currently in the Tender stage, with the tender period ending on 5th November 2018. This open procedure aims to address various waste streams and is classified under the general public services industry category. The procurement process will likely follow a standstill period of 10 clear calendar days post-award notifications, fostering transparency in awarding contracts in the locality of Dumfries, UK.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in waste management and environmental services, particularly those specialising in waste treatment, recycling, and disposal technologies. Businesses that provide suitable regulatory compliance, hold the necessary permits, and can demonstrate capacity for short-term service provision will be well-suited to compete for these contracts. With community benefits as a component of the procurement, firms that can effectively align their services with social and environmental objectives may find additional competitive advantages in this process.

### Lot Information

Treatment and disposal of Residual Waste

This Lot is seeking suitably qualified service providers capable of delivering a service for the treatment and disposal of material collected as part of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) household and commercial residual waste collection services by Dumfries and Galloway Council's collection service, as well as potentially from other sources such as Household Waste Recycling Centres. Likely to include a mix of general waste materials, some of which may be recyclable, but which may be adversely affected by organic waste such as food waste or similar cross-contamination. The material in this Lot may be required to be treated by further segregation and/or sorting prior to treatment to ensure diversion of materials such as ferrous, non-ferrous metals and recyclable plastics from landfill or energy production; use in processes to produce energy, refuse derived fuel (RDF), solid recovered fuel (SRF) or other energy releasing material, and; for the remaining fraction after any such treatments, by landfill. This lot is for material that is normally treated in-house at Dumfries and Galloway Council's Mechanical Biological Treatment plant (MBT). We are seeking bids from service providers that are able to provide capacity for short term, unplanned periods, for example due to breakdowns or short notice engineering works. It is anticipated that there is a low likelihood of this happening and when it does it should be for short periods of 1 - 3 days. However, bidders should plan for this capacity to be required for up to two weeks at a time. The tonnage shown for this lot is shown as a daily maximum tonnage due to the short term nature of the requirement. This capacity will be required Monday to Friday.

Renewal: The council will reserve the right to extend the contract for a further period of six months.
