## Summary

North Ayrshire Council is in the preliminary stages of a tender process for a service contract titled "Wheeled Bin/Waste Container Delivery, Repair, Exchange and Return Service". The procurement is classified under the General public services industry and will be conducted within the region of UKM93, North Ayrshire. This process is part of the planning stage, with key activities including a market engagement day scheduled for 14 January 2025 via Microsoft Teams, and an expression of interest deadline on 6 January 2025.
