## Summary

Moray Council has completed the procurement process for the treatment of paper, cardboard, news, and PAMS (separate and/or mixed) under tender ID 18/0285 MC04. The procurement falls within the "services" industry category and is specific to the location of Moray, UK, identified as the region UKM62. The procurement was conducted using a limited method without prior publication of a call for competition, leveraging the Scotland Excel Treatment and Disposal of Recyclable and Residual Waste DPS 27/17 for a mini competition. The contract was awarded on 12th March 2025 to Smurfit Kappa Recycling, with an award notice published on 23rd April 2025.
