## Summary

Dumfries and Galloway Council has issued a tender for the "Kerside & Recycling Centre Waste Streams," aiming to manage various waste streams in alignment with the waste hierarchy. The procurement process is currently in the tender stage, adopting an open procedure for soliciting bids. The service-based procurement is categorized under general public services, with a focus on waste management services, specifically in the regions of Annan, Stranraer, Dumfries, and Castle Douglas in Dumfries and Galloway. Bids for the twenty separate lots, covering seven types of waste streams, must be submitted electronically by 2nd July 2025. The council will open bids the same day, and the award start date is set for 2nd July 2025, following the end of the tender period.

This tender represents substantial opportunities for businesses involved in waste management services, particularly those licensed to handle diverse types of waste. Companies can expand their operations by bidding on one or multiple lots, as the contract allows winning bidders flexibility without penalties for bidding on any or all lots. Firms focusing on recycling and environmental sustainability will find this contract conducive for growth, given the emphasis on managing waste according to the waste hierarchy. With contracts initially set for three years, including an optional additional year, this tender offers a stable and potentially longer-term business alliance with Dumfries and Galloway Council. Furthermore, businesses with capabilities in electronic submissions and those capable of participating in an electronic auction process are particularly well-suited to compete for these opportunities.
