## Summary

Aberdeenshire Council has completed the contracting process for the "Disposal of POPS, Bulky & Residual Waste" service, with the contract finalised on 27 June 2025. This procurement was necessitated by unforeseeable urgent circumstances related to the NESS Energy from Waste Facility's closure. In response, the council opted for a limited procurement method without prior public competition to urgently meet statutory waste disposal obligations. The procurement is classified under general public services and revolves around the services sector, with operations centred in Aberdeenshire (UKM50). Cireco (Scotland) LLP, a local SME from Glenrothes, was awarded the contract valued at £153,261.00.

This tender represents a crucial opportunity for businesses specialising in waste management services, particularly those equipped to handle urgent and unforeseen service requirements. Companies in this sector that are agile and can quickly adapt to emergency contracts may find similar opportunities advantageous for growth. The ability to fulfil high-quality and cost-effective service delivery can be a compelling proposition for local authorities facing similar urgent waste management challenges. The successfully awarded contract underscores the importance of establishing strong service credentials and flexibility in meeting the stringent criteria of public sector tenders, especially in scenarios with tight deadlines and demanding circumstances.
