## Summary

The Perth & Kinross Council has awarded a contract for the provision of metal bin housing units with fill-level sensors to improve waste collection services in the city centre. The contract, titled "Award of Litter Bin Housing and Fill Level Sensors (PKC 12036)", falls under the main procurement category of goods. The total value of the contract is £45,000. The procurement stage is "award", and the contract was signed on March 14, 2023. The buying organisation is the Perth & Kinross Council, and the procurement process was initiated via a tender.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in waste and rubbish containers, sensors, and bins. Companies adept at providing innovative waste management solutions, particularly those involved in the manufacturing or supply of metal bin housing units with fill-level sensors, are well-suited to compete. The contract aims to enhance waste collection efficiency by enabling real-time data monitoring of litter bins' fill levels, leading to optimised collection schedules. Businesses that can offer high-quality, technology-driven waste management solutions have the potential to meet the requirements outlined in the tender and contribute to improving environmental sustainability.

## Notice

Perth & Kinross Council wishes to increase the efficiency of its city centre waste collection services through the implementation of fill level sensors to the area's litter bins. This will be achieved by providing real time data relating to the litter bins fill level, enabling collections to occur when they are necessary as opposed to the current system which results in litter bins having scheduled collections, regardless of their capacity.We are looking to purchase metal bin housing units for 240L waste containers, that come pre-fitted with fill-level sensors.
